Pole Position
F: 18x9+22 with 225/40
R: 18x10+27 with 235/40
These shots are from the day of installation. I have since gone just shy of half an inch lower and I love the compromise between how it looks, yet it still rides quite nice. I rolled the fender lips just a little bit to be safe, but probably could have gone without doing so. No doubt the 19's look killer, and these wheels are offered in 19's.. But i've got a 240sx that these wheels work perfectly on as well; its nice to have wheels that will work on more than just one of your cars. With the versatility of 18's and the cheaper cost of tires, I don't think Ill be going to 19's.
photos are huge.. sorry / you're welcome

I hope this reply isn't too old to get a response. I'm curious to know your setup as I just ordered wheels and tires for my 93 and I'm hoping it mimics your look. After I lower it of course

I find 18s suite the car perfectly, it allows you to go lower. And it's a versatile size you can pull off a VIP look or track look depending your choice of wheels.
Here's a picture of my car with 18s from last summer
