You can also get cheap Z32 (300ZX) wheels that are 16x8 or 16x8.5 from the rear of the TTs. You can run the 255 Mickey Thompson Street Radials which will give you more grip than you'll know what to do with. They will not work over rear Brembos without some massaging of the splines. The 8.5" wheels catch a bit of a premium since Z32 owners buy them specifically for drag racing, but the 8" variants would be fine for your NA application as well.
