There are three tricks to fitting these wheels on to your 240SX (and these "tricks" apply to fitting extreme wheel fitments on any car, not just 240s):
1) fender work: in this case, there are so many options available for aftermarket bolt-on, flared fenders that this is not even an issue.
2) camber: run a little more negative camber to bring the top of the wheel/tire in under the fender lip. As long as it all clears while static, the camber curve will assure you that the setup will not rub on compression.
3) stretched tires: go down a little in tire size to stretch a tire over the wheel. The angled sidewall of a stretched tire will also give you those extra few mm of clearance; which is sometimes all you need.

These Bersaglios are definitely bad ass wheels...but they might not be for everyone; only those who are willing to put some time and effort and $$ into making their car look like a standout (cuz that's what wheels like these come down to...) need apply.
