Hey guys,

After trolling for a while I decided to join since I just picked up my first 240sx. Lucky for me, the guy I bought it from has a dad who restores cars for a living so $4900 got me a freshly (professionally) painted 240sx with full interior! I need to get some new (real) wheels and a fresh set of coilovers for her to start things off. I plan on doing the typical Type X tail light swap and possibly a Sil front end down the line, but for right now I just want to focus on her shoes.

Thanks for looking! I hope to learn a lot from this forum! Gonna go search wheel specs right now, deciding between 17x9+35 or 17x9.5+25 for starters...

It came with some Tein coilovers in the front, and some GAB shocks/springs in the rear for now. I'm gonna lower it first, but there are 2 sets of rims I have my eyes on and I want to swoop them up before they're gone...anyone got a link to a fitment thread? I'm still trying to navigate this thread. Yes, I am using the search tool lol.

Thanks man! I lucked out totally...it's got another little present under the hood, done super well too. I'll get into that later lol. In the meantime, does anyone have any input on fitment? Or a link?:stupid:

this did not need its own thread
