hey guys,
just needed a little help seeing if my friends volk GTN's for his is300 would work on a 93 nsx? he has (18x8 front / 18x10 rear) and i was wondering if that'd work on a stock bodied nsx. any specifications as to whether this will rub, or not allow the front wheels to turn? and is there an advantage to keeping the fronts smaller in diameter? any help would be appreciated. thanks!
 
the front would be the problem, (it might rub, but hey, if sky is the limit, you might be able to find some 30 series tires for the front. I saw them from some web site before.)

Personally, I won't do it, but there's a lot of people can live with tire rubbing and just to look cool.

If you are care about your car, and the handling / peformance aspect, go check out the FAQ and the SOS web site. You will get the answer.

Just remember do your homework first.

or, just put it on your car and try out, it's your freind, right? He should be able to let you test fit it, right.?

Rubbing is a function of the tire size (which you have not stated), and the offset (which you have not stated). Fitting is a function of the lug pattern (which you have not stated), the center bore (which you have not stated), and the offset (which you have not stated). Interference with the calipers is a function of the spoke design (which you won't know until you try).

Bottom line: You would have to try them to be sure.
