I have the exact same 962 setup on a pearl white '87 and have no fitment issues. I love it and constantly get comments. The car hasn't even run in 3 years and still gets them.

I have always been a fan of the 5 spoke wheels, I had a set of these real similar fast octanes which I sold due to brake clearance - 300zx


currently have rota p45_r very similar without the machined alum lip

My tires are taller than the ones you're getting and rub so I'll have to roll the rear panels a little. This is with B&G springs and no engine so the front doesn't help much. They are 18x9.5 and 17x9.

Why 17 up front?

The wheels in my sig were all 18's the fronts rubbed constantly. I know some people don't have that issue, (the guy I sold the wheels to for example) but I also like the way the smaller wheels look in the front. Also, that way I could get 9" wide wheels in the front without rubbing.
