Do those Z32/Cobra BBK hub-centric rings really work on the 3rd gen?

I don't know because after all this time I haven't installed my Z32/Cobra BBK. From those who have installed the kit I have yet to read of any problems, so to answer my question "yes it does work" What's your opinion?

They were a tad bit tight on my hub, but they went on after a little coaxing with a flathead screwdriver and a rubber mallet. They seem to "work" fine.

Um, I've had my bbk on for well over a year now. Yes they fit fine. It might be tight because some have rust on the hubs but nothing a little scraping can't fix.

Should they be the front or rear rotors and does it matter?

Also would you know what dimater they are? I'm looking at two parts # for the the 86 Z and the Canada rear rotors is 10-11/64" and the US is 11-27/64".

I take it I would need the US spec rear rotor, correct?

Looks like 290mm to me. And yes, you need the rear rotor. Candiman specifies the 86 turbo (t) to minimize confustion.

Just for looks. I have drill/slotted rotors on the fronts and rears right now and would like to keep it that way. Besides look really nice under my 18's and are fairly cheap these days.

BTW, do you carry any?
