Looks like a mugen wing, with a modified center section. You may notice the car itself is RHD, and has the Mugen front turn signal covers.

Interesting vehicle, since it's also sporting a Wings West front lip, and side skirt; I guess parts go in both directions :tongue:

Ah yes.. I inquired about them here. Nice to see someone has tried these on the NSX.

These look pretty nice, but I got a couple of detailed questions to these wheels:
1) Can you get the 19x9.5 +35 fitment as an option?
2) Are these the STD Spec versions? Will you be offering the reduced weight "SP Spec" versions (the ones with the cutouts on the spokes)?
3) What's the weight of these wheels in the sizes you offer? I read somewhere that the 18x8.5" is around 20 lbs..
4) Do you know how these wheels are made? I know they are Cast, but are they flow-formed? Low pressure cast? Gravity Cast?

Good questions:

These look pretty nice, but I got a couple of detailed questions to these wheels:
1) Can you get the 19x9.5 +35 fitment as an option?
- yes, definitely

2) Are these the STD Spec versions? Will you be offering the reduced weight "SP Spec" versions (the ones with the cutouts on the spokes)?
- the SP Spec is available - for those that don't know, it has cut our reliefs on the spoke to reduce weight. This is a very expensive option, and to me, looks a little strange, as it is staggered

3) What's the weight of these wheels in the sizes you offer? I read somewhere that the 18x8.5" is around 20 lbs..
- these are new wheels, so we have not had a chance to measure the NSX wheels. I was given two samples: 18x8.5 +38 21.75 lbs, 18x9.5 +22 22.5 lbs

4) Do you know how these wheels are made? I know they are Cast, but are they flow-formed? Low pressure cast? Gravity Cast?
- low pressure cast with flow forming

I don't see any 17" offering?

 

[ScienceofSpeed]

Sorry, the 17" is not available in NSX friendly sizes.

 

[andre.sugarland]

Do you have the wheels in stock now ?

 

[ScienceofSpeed]

The first sets in the USA will be arriving in about 2-4 weeks. We have these on sale now if you are interested.

1) Will TCS continue to work with these?

2) Will these rub up front at all?

 

[Tangoman]

Great wheels, too bad 17/18 isn't available. 18/19 ruins the handling of the car.

 

[ScienceofSpeed]

1) Will TCS continue to work with these?

2) Will these rub up front at all?

Yes, these are sized appropriately for the NSX - no rubbing, and TCS will work fine. TCS has to do with tire size, 215/35-18 and 255-265/30-19 would be a good tire size.

 

[bngl3rt]

Looks like these are also available in 17x7+50 and 18x8.5+52 - any reason you don't sell a 17/18 set?

Yeah cuz those sizes and offsets suck. LOL

 

[bngl3rt]

Yeah cuz those sizes and offsets suck. LOL

:frown:

I just want a tasteful, affordable, OEM-ish 17/18 setup... is that too much to ask?
