I want to get a set of fuchs for my bug. I was thinking the 4 lug 15X5.5 from a 70' to a 76' 914. Will these fit with no modifications? or rubbing?

installed on my fathers 79 vert are aset of 15x5.5 914 wheels look just like stockers but wide with offset inside the wheelwell unlike the sport bug wheels that offset out. NO rubbing but this is a 79 super... rims came off a lowered 73 super prior to me getting them with 205/60/15 tires on them.
