i personaly thing the 17" te37 look to small, the 18" te37 look better, the spoke curve in more may be 18x9 with a offset in the 20..

Actually a 17x9 +22 will be the closest thing to perfect if you want flush wheels with minimal work. You will have to perform a minor fender roll, but its worth the look. Running a 225/45 with this setup will be great.

17x9 +22 is what Benson used to run on his Sil-80.

Its perfect on a stock body S13. Perfect.

yeah 2 choices, 17x9 +22 or 17x9 +15 if i remember tire sizes ia lways recommend goign with 40 series unless its 215. 225/45/17 is like 1/2 inch taller than 235/40/17. especially with stock body 240 you need it as low as possible. the front bumper clearance on our cars is very big... 10 inches stock even dropping the car 4 inches the bumper gap will still be about 6 inches so no worries... every 1/2 inch counts

depending on what camber you want to run choose either or. not sure if the 22 will clear your coilovers but thats for you to figure out.
