I'm getting ready to buy some new rims and tires soon because my tires are starting to go. I have a 1998 240sx and want these rims http://jspec.com/5zigtyp5lug.html I also want them to look flush with the fenders. I belive that these will look flush, but not exactly sure and also wondering if i should get 17x9's in the front. I was wondering if it wuold work, if i would have to roll the fenders or anthing like that. If i could get some help with this weather it would work or not, that would be great. I really need to find out what kind of offset to get and weather i should go 17x8's in the front and 17x9's in the back or 17x9's all around. Some picktures on this would be kool too. Thanx for any help

 

17x9 with a 15 offset is nice and flush. you may have to roll a little but not much

 

wheelnext.com and wheelmax.com are good sites.

those are bad site.. bad wheels...

 

For RWD cars, not good selection

To answer the original question...I would go 17X8 in the front and 17X9 in the rear.

Front offset:20+ for a nice flush look
Rear offset:15+ or 20+

 

If i wanted to get 17x8 all around what kind of offset would u recommend for a flush look? Wouldn't a 15+ or 20+ offset with 17x9 rims stick out on the rear?

 

^^No

17X8Front:+20ish
17X8:+20ish

Cant calculate it exactly, but this give you an idea

 

so if you have a 35+ offset how does the wheel look on the car does it stick out or what what does it really look like

 

Whats the width of it? Width and offset go hand in hand

 

running sagered wheels isnt always a good idea because you can not rotate them around. personally a 9J with a 15 offset will do fine. and flush is a personal subjective... you can go with american flush and run like a 35-25 but a 15 ofsfet rocks

 

I really want 17x9 all around. I know the rear will be cool, but 17x9 in the front. Wouldn't that rub against the fenders. I don't want to have to roll fenders or anything like that.

 

just go with 17x9 +15 all around. no real good reason not to roll your fenders.

 

I was just suggesting those wheels as cheap subsitutes, i don't really know exactly what he is looking for.
