I want to put some phat rims in the back and some decents rims up front. I'm going to put wide fenders on my car and was wondering where I could get some rims for a 1991 240 with 4 lugz. If I have too I will convert to 5 lug but dont want to if I don' t have to.I already put perfomance brakes on it, I guess it's only money. I know you guys have been through this so help me! I have been through almost all the staggered sites and they don't offer stagered rims that I want.18's in the front and 19's in the rear. I love the tenzo-r rims but want to get them wide in the rear. The fenders in the front and rear are going to be 50mm wide. Thanks for all your help, maybe a debate will turn of this but thats good. I have been on this site longer then you think.

Please don't think I'm being condescending, but without further comment from OP, I'll just throw out some thoughts.

When you say "performance brakes", what do you mean? Big brake kit? Z32/Q45? Or just a set of aggressive pads and stock rotors/calipers?

Do you have coilovers on the car?

Are you going to change your tension/tierods?

Are you going to change your sway bars?

Stance, braking, and alignment are more important issues than planning wheels around a body kit. You need a full vision of what you are going to do to the car before you get started. I am currently at the same stage as you are in my build, only I wish my car *didn't* have the widebody kit, rather than the bondo-job kit it had when I bought it. (It won't be on there long, though )

For right now I have the drilled and slotted brakes that are stock size with performance pads, I also put on stainless brake lines.

The rims size I want to put on the back would be 10 inches wide. Up front about 8 inches. I don't have any suspension work done at the moment but will do that before I order the rims. I want to run the megan coilover kit and new torsion arms. I've priced the suspension out and figured that I would replace every arm on it just so every part is new.
