Upgrade - Wheels and Tyres

[wixer]

Hi all,
This is basically my first post here, having only bought my NSX last week. It's an early UK 3.0litre and other than a Tubi silencer, is all standard. The tyres on the car need replacing anyway, as they're too old but I also want to increase wheel size to a 16in/17in combination or even a 17in/18in. I would like to keep the wheels to the later model style but have always liked the Rays Volk TE37 style wheel. I'll also be changing to BC racing coilovers to fettle the ride height and improve the wheel to body relationship.

First question is, where could I look at sourcing some later model wheels from ?

Second, if I go aftermarket, recommended maximum width for fronts on a 17in, bearing in mind it's a non PAS model.

Third, any recommendations for sourcing some TE37's ?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers

I meant to ask the all important question. What colour is your NSX?

[wixer]

The only colour for one in my opinion, red with black roof !

Hey Pride another recruit. Good man!!

[wixer]

To be fair, it's a few shades of red at the moment, it's showing its 25 year old age but all on the list of things to do.

Those 02+ wheels are also listed on yahoo auctions, if my calcs are correct they come in at £4K! There is also a set of 02's in what looks like Washi grey for £5600 - I guess these are the lighter 'R' version?! A fair few sets of 16/17 blades.
