Most equips sold in the market doesnt clear Z-brakes. Will need atleast 10-12mm for the most part.

I'm certainly no expert but a 9" wide +38 in the front is probably going to rub your coilovers. That's quite a bit of offset for the front. Hell, that's a lot of offset for the rear. I would look for something in the +20-25 range or lower.

You need to run under a 9J +28 to clear coilovers. So get some 30mm spacers and your wheels will fit OK, you might have to hammer the fender lip a little bit, but it'll look way better then a +38 on a 240.

It will rub.

Just find some wheels that fit. Wheels should fit your car, you shouldn't have to make your car fit your wheels.

Buy the wheels and make the car fit. Get it straight.
