Default My 1998 DWP SC400

Been lurking on here since 02 and finally just picked up my own SC, hehe. It's a 1998 DWP SC400 w/ tan interior and around 80k miles, shipped from Texas to SoCal. The car is super clean but there is condensation in the passenger side headlight which is quite annoying. Previously owned a FD RX-7 and currently still have a MB C240 that I plan on getting rid of. Planning on the usual SC mods... AC kit, coilovers, 19s, exhaust and possibly two-tone interior, etc.

Nice find!

Gotta Love DWP, but I may be a little biased.

Been searching through the Official Wheel & Tire Fitment Guide, but it's pretty hard to navigate all the posts in that thread...

I'm thinking of getting some Work VS-XX in 19x9.5, +40, 245/35/19 and 19x10.5, +45, 275/30/19. What do you guys think of those fitments? I'm planning on rolling the fenders anyways but are the 19x9.5 up front going to be a little too much? +45 also seems a bit high for the rears but they're also 19x10.5 so I think it might be ok?
