I have for sale a set of 18" CP-035 for $500.


The fronts currently have 2 cheapy tires mounted with great tread left (70%?) that you can have for free. One of tires will need to be flipped around as they were both mounted for the same side (tires are directional).

These were the lightest rims on the market back in the day and are still no slouches by today's standards for strength and weight.

Some info about them here:

They don't have any markings on them to designate size or offset unfortunately, but they are sized for the NSX. There are some pictures of them in the following posts (these are actually my rims now). The car pictured is a widebody rear, but 25mm spacers were used.

The previous owner listed that they were powder coated, but I don't think they were. Just painted centers. The wheels need to be refinished as some of the black is chipping and there are some knicks here and there (hence the low price). There is no curbing on the rims.

UPDATE: The price has been cut in half to $600 because a local tire installer told me one of the rear rims is "bent" at the lip, but was still able to be balanced. I took a couple pictures of the bend here (marked in red). The bend is minor enough that I had a tough time finding it once the tire was dismounted:

I also took the time to measure and weigh the rear wheels while the tire was off. These look to be 18 x 9.5 (10.25" between outer edge of lip to outer edge of lip, 9.5" barrel length between the two lips) and weighed 20lb 5oz on a local USPS scale. That's ~3lb less than a BBS LM and ~2lbs more than a TE-37.

If you have any questions let me know. This is a great set of wheels. I'm just looking to do something a little different to make the car "my own".

Wheels and tires are located near San Francisco.
