The good news is, you shouldn't have any TCS problems with those sizes. The bad news is, those are discontinued all-season tires, and unless you expect freezing temperatures in San Diego, they won't give you the kind of traction and handling your car is capable of. You'll be a whole lot better...
Most people who have tried 225/35-18 with stock fenders and wheel well liners have found that it rubs at least some of the time. 215/35-18 generally doesn't. So that's one more thing to consider.
The Michelin Pilot Sport 4S is by far the best tire available in those sizes.
Personally, I would go with a 255/35-18 or 265/35-18 on the rear, for the best handling with a slightly smaller stagger compared with the overwide 275/35-18. (Even though the 255 is the closest match to the ratio of...
On your '95, that's correct.
Here are a couple of other reasons to go with the lower profile sizes. I would avoid the 215/40-18 fronts as there's a good chance they will rub; the 215/35-18 shouldn't. The 275/40-18 rears will also throw off your speedometer by almost 8 percent, while the...
I had the Bilsteins on my NSX, mounted for the stock ride height, and I liked them a lot. They were comfortable in normal street driving and tightened up nicely when driving hard.
You're misconstruing the ratios. The stock tire sizes on a '95 are 215/45-16 front and 245/40-17 rear, which are 4.7 percent larger in outer diameter than the front. That is NOT a maximum; that is the actual difference in tire sizes. The car has a tolerance of plus or minus 5 percent from...
Those sizes will not cause any problems with the TCS or ABS, because the difference in the ratio front vs back is almost the same as stock, as you note.
There shouldn't be any negative ramifications. The sizes are still within the tolerances for the TCS to work properly. And any difference in performance and grip will be negligible, especially on the street, even in brisk cornering. Just sit back and enjoy them!
I don't recall. They are currently listed as available in 205/45-16 and 255/40-17, which would certainly work. Maybe one or the other of those sizes wasn't available at the time I wrote the post, maybe one size was shown for the RE-11 and the other for the RE-11A that they separated out, or...
Are you just referring to the steel parts, or was there also extensive corrosion of the aluminum parts? And, if the latter, how serious a problem is that (e.g. does it threaten the structural integrity of those parts, or is it primarily cosmetic)?
In the United States, a 2017 model year car can be sold as early as January 1, 2016. Obviously that didn't happen with the NSX, but that's the constraint, not summer.
Your current sizes - 215/35-18 front and 265/30-19 rear - are the best 18"/19" sizes for an NSX, especially if you don't want to have to deal with rubbing in the wheel wells. 275/30-19 rears also work. I prefer 275/30-19 rears on a '91-93 NSX, 265/30-19 on a '94-05 NSX.
The very best...
Ahem. "A 20-year study updated in 2013 revealed that black cars are up to 47 percent more likely to be involved in an automotive accidents than cars of any other color."
And even if it did, that could just be a buyer willing to overpay.
IMHO the market value of a car is the price at which similar cars could fairly easily be bought and sold. As you can see, this definition rules out buyers who overpay and sellers who post overoptimistic asking prices.
Since it doesn't represent anything about the car's condition or history (unlike, say, a salvage title), and most other states don't even have such a thing, I can only believe it would have no effect on the car's value.
Today many brands sell "automatic" chargers, which shut off (stop charging) once the battery is fully charged. The term "trickle charger" usually refers to the old fashioned kind that would apply a low charge without the automatic feature, which could damage the battery due to overcharging.
