I saw a old datsun 240z that was wearing some really nice looking torque thrust 2's on it. They were of the 18x8/18x10" variety, and man--they looked absolutley awesome on the car. They arent JDM tyte, yo. AND they arent ultra light weight, but they are wide, chrome/polished, and DAMN did they look good.

Heres my question--anyone else think they would look hot on a 240?I think a set of 9 wide in the rear with 8 up front in 18's or even 17's would look really good. I can get them pretty cheap and was wondering what everyone else thought about them.

and also--if i wanted to try to run 10 inch wides on the rear--id run a 245/or maybe a 255--anyone know what offset id need to compliment that. Im willing to roll fenders, but i dont want to go with flares.

the 240 doesnt have the old school styling cues of the 240Z and old muscle cars..it'd look like crap.

for the offset, SEARCH. more offset info has beenpsoted here then I can rcount and all the tools you need for fitment are in the FAQ.-ChetAlso, the torque thrust 1 and 2 is not a good quality wheel IMO.
