can any one please tell me if this wheel will fit my 92 nsx...xxr 521, 18x10, offset +25,18x8 offset +30

Not without machining - also, they may not clear the brakes.

Hi,
Based on your post, there are few things to consider:
1) 18x8" +30 front is very aggressive. A +35 to +40 is preferable
2) 18x10 +25 rear is also very aggressive, but doable with the correct size tire.
3) Running a 18" front and 18" rear generally looks funny. Try staggering the sizes for a better look (i.e. 17/18 or 18/19)

4) Lastly, based on the XRR Website, only a 18x8.5 is available (no 8" is listed). If this is the case, a 18x8.5 +30 will not fit on the front of a NSX without significant body or tire modifications:

i know this thread been a long time now, but a friend wants to know if he could probably stagger by doing 17x7+38 front and 18x10+25 rear then right?

i would like to know too, but im not sure it will clear brakes?

You technically could. A couple of things to consider though.

1) 17x7 +38 will be considerablly LESS flush than the rear. You'll need at least a 10+ mm spacer in the front to make it even close.
2) With the spacer it "should" clear the most brakes. Keep in mind that generally offset and width have little effect on brake clearance. Brake clearance is more a function of spoke design and will differ considerabily from one wheel design to another.
3) A 17/18 stagger on this wheel design will look smaller than it actually is because the spokes don't come all the way out to the edge of the lip. This won't be as much of an issue if you get the black or gunmetal color, but this wheel would look much better in a 18/19 setup IMO.
