Hello all, this is my 1st post and I'm extremely new to the NISSAN/240/RWD experience. I going to be the proud new owner of a 91 240sx HB. One of the first things I am going to be doing is buying Rims. Now from your experiences what is the best wheel size. I'm debating between 15-17". The 17 would probably save me some extra cash as I have a set of tires for them from my Prelude. Would it be a case of what would suit my eye candy the most. I don't see too many 240's in Toronto that are fixed up so it's really hard to see which size would look best. Please keep in mind that I am planning a lowered suspension and a brake upgrade within the year. Probably to a 300zx or skyline upgrade. are those brakes considerably bigger??? Thanks in advance for all the help.

Every wheel looks disgusting with the stock ride height, so get whatever you want.

You couldn't be more vague with what you wanted out of your wheels or what you are looking for.
