Will C5 wheels fit a C4?

I have a set of C5 wheels off my 97 Vette up for sale and a guy wants to know if they will fit his 1992 C4. If not what does he need?

I believe they should fit fine.
84-87 had the odd offset, 88-96 I believe have a very similiar if not the same offset and backspacing as a C5.

here is a site with specs, since the table below my not format correctly,
