    18's on my satellite

    I own a 70 Satellite and I'm really not into the "donk" if that's what your thinking. But these cars look great with 18's (imo) which I know "old heads" usually don"t like (my dad said the same thing). None of those 3 spoke junkers or flashy walmart rim garbage. I really like the pro-touring...

    factory brakes, manual or power?

    From what I have found there is a difference in the firewall, the mounting pattern is different for brake booster and straight master cylinder. BCD offers only one kit and states that if its a power brake car you have to do some mild clearancing of the firewall, and will bolt right up to a...

    Shocks...feel,performance????

    In my opinion Bilstein > KYB, If the price difference isn't too much, although for strictly street use your cutting hairs. I used both of them on my 240sx and there really wasn't any difference....just my 2 cents

    18's on my satellite

    Thanks for the support Dave, I mean that from the bottom of my heart. I love being a soldier as much as I love cars. Tirerack is usually where I start when I'm looking for new rims but their "what fits" is geared to what fits easily. I spent a couple hours reading about backspacing and how it...

    18's on my satellite

    Most rim manufacturers measure in offset these days. and after looking at conversion charts for a 10in wheel with a 4.5 or 5.5 backspace it would have an offset of -26 to 0...kinda hard to find rims with those offsets. My 240sx has 18x9.5 +25 in the rear and they are pretty deep...

    18's on my satellite

    Is that for front, rear, both? I know that offset changes depending on the rim width so if you run 8 up front and 10 in the rear you wont necessarily be able to use the same backspace. Im still working to understand backspace, all I have dealt with is offset.

    18's on my satellite

    Hello everyone, I have a question about what offsets are working for people on their B's. I cant seem to find a definitive answer on the proper offset for a full set of 18's either standard or staggered fitment. Im looking at 18x9 all the way around but would rather go with 18x8 front and 18x9.5...
