Hey,

I'm trying to find some staggered rims for my 1993 240sx. I already have the five lug conversion with the NA 300zx calipers [26mm] up front. I found some rims that are 18x8 and 18x9 with 38 offsets front and back. Do you think this will clear my calipers and tein coilovers? Also would I need to roll the rear fenders to allow for proper wheel clearance if I want a nice drop? If so, does anyone know where I can find a shop that rolls fenders in the dade or broward area?

clear your calipers: that depends mostly on rim design

clear your coilovers: no. you will need to run a spacer - almost absolute minimal is x8+30 - so you do the math w/ offset calculator.

roll your fenders: not w/ those offsets.

I run a conservative x9+20 all around, and that only needed fender rolling (slight pull from rolling also).
