Hi there, This is my first post on this forum so pls bear with me.

I recently purchased a 91 JDM z32 twin turbo. One of the main things I am looking to do is upgrade the wheels to a set of 17" Ive been trying to find information on wheel offsets and widths and fitments but I just cannot make heads or tails of it. I read one thing then turn around and read something totally different elsewhere.

What I am trying to accomplish is esentially this, I am looking to fit a set of wheels, Bronze preferably, no narrower then 17x9. Staggered would be good aswell. I would like something close to flush without having to do any fender rolling. I understand that the HICAS may be an issue, and I would have more options with an 18' wheel, but I am pretty dead set on 17's.

I appreciate any help you guys can give me! It would be a bonus if you could post pics of your setups so I can get an idea of what I want. Thanks a million!!

Awsome! Thank you very much for clearing that up. So just to make certain. A 17x9.5" wheel will clear the twin turbo hicas?? Thank you again!
