Hi guys I need some advice. I want to put som Enkei rpo3 rims on my 93 2+2. With Eibachs and kyb's. what is the optimum rims size. I plan on doing a na twin conversion later. so I'm looking at 275's rear 245's front. Should i go 18's with the eibacks or seventeens and what wall size. 40's 35's 45's. I'm trying to get a clean line with the wheel well with the rear sitting an inch or so higher than the front.I would appreciate any input. thanksZak

I'm pretty sure you still can (want) to go with staggered 18's ... since you won't be able to rotate, maybe front 17's, rear 18's??

The Z32 guys will weigh in soon enough, but I can't resist the shameless plug ... I have a set of brand new Eibach's if you're interested in a screaming deal. I bought them with plans to use/modify them for a Q45, but ended up getting Q45 specific ones. Shoot me an email (profile) if you're interested.

I have 17's up front and 18's out back. The staggered setup is very nice. Also, I run 235/40's up front and 265/35's in the back.
