235/40's up front and 255/40's in rear sound like a good setup. What offset are your rims?

Hey, I know this quote is old but could you let me know how this worked out for you. Tire size etc, and do you have coilovers. I've decided on my wheels 5zigen Hedfeilds but would like to know what rim and tires sizes will work with planned JIC coilovers. Thanks alot I am a new guy to the 240.

Hey, glad you decided to go with the 240sx. Its a great car, but I'm sure you already know that. Im running on 235/45R17 in front and 255/40R17 in back, lowered with Eibach Pro-kits and sitting on KYB AGX's all around. Front offset is +25, rear is +35. Now, when you want to know what rim/tire sizes will work the with JICs, are you concerned they wont clear?

Well I've already decided to go with either Stech or whiteline springs, KYB AGX and probably 18"s. The JIC would probably be to much right now. I'm only going to be on the street for a little while maybe the track some day. Thanks for the info though.
