New owner/Thanks for all the help

[Tom Larkins]

I just wanted to take the time to thank those that assisted in the Purchase of my blk/tan 96t. With the ?'s asked and the information given from this site. Thanks to Eddie Nakato whom went to look at the car for me personally. Morgan Peetz @ Acura of Portland, also NSXexotic ( I think) in Ft. Lauderdale who offered to look at a car that I didn't buy. It arrived from Washington state on Friday its just a everyone reported. Now I just want to consider what I want to do with it as far a modifications. Tires/wheels are first and i'm looking for someone i've seen on this site by the name of "Dutch Black" I like to looks of his set-up. Thanks again everyone...

Glad you liked the pictures.

The car was lowered approximately 1.25" (with Eibach Pro-Kit springs). The wheels are TSW Revos 17x7 front and 18x8 rear. Tires are Kumho Ecsta Supra 215/40/17 and 235/35/18.

Hi Tom,
Congratulations with your new car. You've just become a member of a very exclusive and happy club I think.
I have met DutchBlackNSX last weekend (lives in the Netherlands) and his wheels really do look good. He just has them. If he doesn't reply to your post I will ask about the wheels for you.

Under "Huckster"?

MvM, If you can find out anything on his tire/wheel/spring set-up let me know. I tried to e-mail him and couldn't connect to his address. I happened to see his car again in another post in regards to BMW's. Of course the Bimmer has the hood up and was smoking. His car looked great. Thanks for the help.

Tom,

I've asked about the wheels for you that DutchBlackNSX has fitted under his car.
They are Advan AVBS Model 7 17" and 19".
There are not available in Europe so he ordered them straight from Japan but I've been told there are available in the US.

Hope to have been of help with this.
