what do you think about having 15s in the front and 14s for the rear??
and what can be the reason why my front is high with the current rims?
Looks wise, the 14" give a bit more jap oldschool appearance, but id say go with a 15 if your after 8" or wider rims, purely because you will have such a great selection of tyres to giv you exactly the look/stance you want from the rims, tyres can make or break a good set of rims in my opinion.
Thats my 2c

Changing wheel sizes from from front to rear isn't recommended, it can seriously mess up your handling. Makes it feel real inconsistent in corners.
Normally the reason the front sits higher than the rear is the suspension. I know mine with 14" Hotwires appears to look higher at the font than the rear, the only explanation that can be given is the suspension/strut height being higher than the rear.
15" are popular on Sprinters because the wheel and tyre range is greater, but 14" rims with a 185/60 tyre on them is a real classic Jap look, and a lot of cars can pull it off quite successfully. Best idea is to look around other cars and see what style/offset you like, maybe do some photo editing to trial them on the car, and then finally go for it when you have made your choice

Jasons old car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
give her my love.
And yer just match the spec of the SSR's that were on it.
As for 15 front 14 rear no wukkas, gearing changes slightly depending on tyre choice but other than that no difference. I use 15s with 195 50 on front and 14 with 185 60 on back and it feels great
his old wheels were 15 x 8 -19 and 15 x 7.5 -15
the car could easily spin the 15's and has been slid at approx 160k no worries.

Hey mate, if the front is to high lower it, its got coilovers. The only reason i lifted it when i sold it to you was so it was easier to transport. And yeas it looked alot better with the big wheels. Oh i miss that car.
much appreciated for your reply people
hey jase would you know how much you lifted the front by??
and would the cars handling change that much with different height adjustments..
soo prob will get 15s upfront 14s rear OR all 15s FTW (y)
DOES ANYONE ELSE WANNA HAVE A SAY ON HAVING DIFFERENT RIMS SIZES FRONT TO REAR PLEASE??
