[maxnix]

Great thread, but I am rather surprised no one notes weight nor strength of each wheel.

Also amused rim (actually the outer circumference part of the wheel) is used. Very VIP Forum lingo, rather unexpected on a perfromance car forum.

Did the spreadheet ever materialize?

[MANIACura]

These wheels look perfect on this car. It's great when somebody gets it right. Have you ever weighed your wheels? I love the 18/19 set-up but I wonder if you give up the weight advantage of the Volks.

[pezee]

anyone have a pic of a nsx with regamasters? pref. 17/18s

 

[RYU]

I wonder why this isn't a sticky...?

Setup 1: (track, when i can)
NSX Prime name - ryu
Setup - 17/18
Year NSX - 1991
Rim brand, and type - Speed Star Racing (SSR)
Rim size f/r - (F) 17x7.5 (R) 18x9.5
Rim offset f/r - (F) +42 (R) +50
Tire size f/r - (F) 215x40x17 (R) 255x35x18
BBK? if so brand - Stock NA1
spacers needed f/r - No/No
extended lugs? f/r - No
Lowered? with what setup? - Bilstein Shocks (lower perch), OEM Springs
Front tire rubbing? inside/outside - No
Rear tire rubbing? - No
If you could re-order your current set-up, what would you change? It's the perfect race setup. If you like the flush-to-fender look, should probably add a 15mm spacer in the rear. These are super light.

Setup 2: (street, 95% of the time)
NSX Prime name - ryu
Setup - 18/19
Year NSX - 1991
Rim brand, and type - Roja Formula Seven
Rim size f/r - (F) 18x8 (R) 19x10
Rim offset f/r - (F) +40, (F) +37 with 3mm spacer, (R) +45
Tire size f/r - (F) 225x35x18 (R) 275x30x19
BBK? if so brand - Stock NA1
spacers needed f/r - (F) +3mm to clear front calipers
extended lugs? f/r - No
Lowered? with what setup? - Bilstein Shocks (lower perch), OEM Springs
Front Tire rubbing? inside/outside - Yes on full lock and aggressive bumps
Rear Tire rubbing? - No
If you could re-order your current set-up, what would you change? I would have gone with a 215 front tire. 225 rubs on outer fender lining and on full lock will rub on front fender vents. It's more an annoyance than a hinderance. The added weight and size is most noticeable on degraded braking performance.

What's funny is that i've inadvertently copied newman - http://www.nsxprime.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43205
old school rims, old school exhaust. haha

 

[NSXBoss]

I'm not very experience in wheel fitment on NSX's... yet. Is this to aggressive of a setup?

F19x8.5 +25
R19x9.5 +30

 

[mugen_kid]

You will want to run a 18 for the front. 19 is just too big for the front of this car. One of the biggest problems is finding a tire that will allow you to run a 19 up front without rubbing.

Your offsets look like something you'd run on a widebody also. my $0.02.
