Can I Use 18 X 8 On Front And Rear On My1995

18x8 wheels are too narrow for the proper size rear tires on the NSX (255/35-18 or 265/35-18).
Also, if the four wheels are identical, you are going to have a problem with the different size center bore required for NSX wheels. (The center bore is the big hole in the center of the wheel.)

I am running 18x8 on the rear with a 255 35 18... recommended by discounttiredirect.com for the nsx and the tires fit great with zero problems, they aren't bowed out in the center at all.
As for the center bore for nsx wheels... Aftermarket rims come with plastic or aluminum alignment rings in order to fit perfectly on the hub.
All 255/35-18 tires that I'm aware of are approved by their tire manufacturer only for use on rim widths of 8.5-10.0 inches. Tires aren't covered under the manufacturer's warranty for non-approved rim widths. It is also a serious safety issue. I'm surprised that Discount Tire would expose themselves to the liability involved in selling tires for a use that is not approved by their manufacturer. I sure wouldn't use them that way...nsxot1c said:
When bought new, yes. When bought used, often no (and they're difficult to impossible to buy separately).nsxot1c said:
