R33 GTR wheels are 17x9 +30mm and they clear Z brakes. I think they will clear coilovers on a 240sx.

Assuming youre 5 lug, the wheels are a good choice. I like the 7 spoke Weapon better than the 5 spoke Competition.

I'd run +27mm front and rear. +17mm might give you some fender issues, especially in the front. Or you could do +27mm front and +17mm rear (may have to roll your fenders).

Search for threads about these wheels. I hear they are pretty thin and dont survive potholes very well. But they definitely look good and you cant beat the price...
