Default AU XR Weeks offset

I have a set of AU11 XR wheels on my AU11 GHIA and was told this morning that the offset is different from front to back. I found this strange as when we bought these wheels(genuine) im sure we slapped then on anywhere.

The reason im questioning this is my rear tyres were bald and wished to put the new ones on the front and front ones to the rear, but was told i couldnt.

Can anyone clarify this, i did a quick search and couldnt find much.

Thanks.

XR wheels have the same offset all round, the only ones that are different are the ones fitted to TE/TS50 models.
