I'm looking to get the Tenzo DC-6 Version 1 rims and they come in either 18x8 and 18x9.5 or 17x7. Which would look and fit better on a stock 95' 240sx?

18x9.5 in the back, 18x8 up front, wouldnt match up right if u had the 9.5s all the way around-unless u had different offsets

why wouldnt it match up??? because they wouldnt be uber flush in back........ big deal!!!! i would rather have the option to rotate my tires than have to buy new ones every 6-12 months on a street car

I'd get some 5mm spacers just incase those rub on your suspension. I needed a +20 to get them to fit with my coilovers on my s13, clears by about 1-2mm.

I dont know how much more clearance you will have on an s14, might be somehting to look into or if anyone else can verify. good luck.
