Phase2 and Enjuku used to have them but I'm pretty sure they've been discontinued. So I guess start looking for some used ones.

Rota D2's are the alternative knock-off but the sizing might not be to your liking. Or if you have some cash, buy the real things! Work Meisters or SSR SP1.

im running 215/45 in the front and 235/40 in the rear and i always get offers from people wanting to buy my rims. the fenders are rolled and the car is lowered on tein coilovers, but i'll just let my sig do the talking because a pic is worth a thousand words.

its lowered all the way on the teins the front bumper is 3" or less off the ground and thats not including the lip thats on it now, so i hope your joking about lowering it more in the front. if anything i would think i would be told the fenders were rolled and pulled to much in the front and i should get new ones and do it right...lol. it will all look right once i put the silvia front end on it with the origin fenders.

just fyi 215/45 has a larger overall diameter than 235/40, therefore you are running larger profile in the front. looks sort of weird.

i would probably lower it about an inch all around for good measure... whatever that means.

yeah im thinking 235's all the way around will really set the elites off, but im also thinking whats the widest tire i can slap on them and still clear my fenders without having to raise the rear end.
