They just flow so perfectly! I bet you all the z's with stretch tires and crazy offsets use to be a 240 guy. It's so damn sexy.
EDIT:

Some z members know how to do this ish right! Mrtoeknee's car i love it

Mrtoeknee is rockin 20's. I think he use to have 19" GTF's w/ the same offset as mine. The tire specs were 245/35/19F and 275/35/19R on the GTF's. Looked amazing...

I was assuming your were dumping it. If you just have springs I'd go with what djParis or Ethan said.
