OK people, I hope these posts help since I see so many threads about the same "eternal" question, "what rims fit my car" or "will these fit" so here we go...
I am going to list what fits in the two most popular size combos:
- 17"/18"
- 18"/19"
... with a little deduction you will also be able to determine wether your 15/16, 16/17, 17/17, 18/18 combos will work too.
So here we go:
18"/19" -
Front wheels:
- 18X7.5, +45 (very inset) to +30 (very flush and depending on tire choice, possibly risky)
- 18X8, +48 (again very inset) to +33 (again very flush, use caution - and narow tire)
- 18X8.5, +48 (yes very inset but the rim is wider) to +42 ( it should be noted that the tire will be very, very stretched and this is not for everyone)
Rear wheels: *** It MUST be noted that the NSX suspension geometry is such that when lowering the car, the rear will pull the tire inwards significantly, allowing a lower offset - lower number means wheel sticks out more - thus your wheel that was "flush" at stock height will no longer be flush, keep this in mind and know that the lower offset REAR wheels listed here will only work with lowered cars*** - wheels marked (*) are for lowered cars -
- 19X9 (very narrow wheel but can work, not "optimal") +40 to +30*
- 19X9.5 +45 to +28*
- 19X10 +45 to +28*
- 19X10.5 +45 to +29* ( at the lower offsets your car will need to be quite low and use a stretched tire (265/30/19) to clear fenders)
- 19X11 +45 to +36*
17"/18"
Front wheels:
17X7 +40 to +30
17X7.5 +44 to +32
17X8 +48 to +33
17X8.5 +48 to +40
Rear wheels:
18X8.5 +40 to +30 (this width NOT recommended but will work)
18X9 +40 to +30 (minimum rec'd width)
18X9.5 +45 to +33
18X10 +45 to +30
18X10.5 +45 to +30
I am going to say that these are only my estimates for wheel fitment and they probably don't agree with what everyone else says but I have spent a long time fitting wheels to the NSX and these are MY findings.
USE CAUTION WHEN FITTING WHEELS/TIRES - AND COMMON SENSE
