thinking about buying these as an extra set, or at least I'm top bidder now.. in case I ever go to a track or something? figure cheap set of tyres to scrub.
what you think.

They are for sale by toffynose and I would be tempted to investigate further before committing yourself.
Honda have never offerered a 17/18 option so I would ne unsure about what car these were originally intended for.
When he posted I mention the sizes and I will say it again, they are wrong.
If you want a nice set of wheels for an NSX...

I think they might clash with Rob's IOP Ary ;)... but for track use does it matter? If only they were gunmetal finish ..........
Paul,
Should I make you an offer you can't refuse?

Rob, I got a set of wheels for sale for 300 squids (17/18") if your bidding falls through. These definitely fit the NSX.:D

Not sure,
They feel a little heavier than the 95+ alloys on manual lifting ...not much though as they are narrower........don't have any scales to measure.
They are 8J-18 and 7.5J-17 and did have 265/35/18 nad 215/40/17 worn tyres on whan I got them respectively.
I have had them refurbed and now also with my original 15/16", it's cluttering up space and I can't see myself buying some treads for them and switching wheels as I am happy with the OEMs.

Boomin, I think its a good idea, I'm going to do the same with the set of spare after markets I've got. Thinking of fitting R888 tyres to them just for track use.

yep, but.... will they fit. I've been pipped on the bidding and after the comments above am worried about buying them now...
I was mainly attracted to the new rubber as I don't care about the looks of them...
so, SS not sure if yours are for me.

As far as I know they will fit your NSX

Ary do you mean that they are not the original european spec size?

Yes mate, the sizes are just odd. A load of cars have the same bolt pattern, but that does not mean they would work on the NSX.
