Tyre Sizes For a 1996 UK NSX

[Martin]

Anyone know off the top of their head the correct tyre sizes, at the front, for the above NSX?

Cheers

Has the sizes, original equipment, and suggested alternative tyres.

215/45/16s are rare though; Dunlop doesn't make tyres in that size any more. I'm also trying to find Dunlop Sportmaxes in 225/40/16s but am having a bit of trouble locating stockists. Any tips more than welcome.

You could go up to 225/40s, where you have more options. They have a similar circumference (608mm versus 600mm), which is within the 1.5% difference recommended by Dunlop so shouldn't affect the handling or screw up the speed sensors.

About the only tyres people have found in the correct size for the fronts are

Goodyear Eagle F1
Bridgestone RE040

Is putting a 225 wide tyre on a 7" wide rim pushing it a bit??? I'd have thought the 205/45/16 was a better option as it's a very common size.

I used to run 225 ADVAN AD07s from japan on my DC5 and fitted ok
