Hey guys, found this pic recently of a te37 on an s2k, is it possible to get this sort of look on an nsx? if so what size, and offset? And does anyone have any pics with this kind of set up or close to, i really love the concave look of a te37.

cheers.

Looks like it could be a real TE37.
I've heard many S2000 guys running the 18x9.5 +22 for this setup. If that's the case, it "could" fit the NSX but I wouldn't do it.
 
Here is the picture of my s2k with te37 +22 all around. Your best bet if you wanna go concave is 18x9.5+22 or 18x9.5+35 on the nsx cause 8.5 is not concave anymore which is what i was running in my front before.

Guys, I don't think he's asking if this wheel off a S2K would work....I think he's looking to see how a similar set up would look like on the NSX.

Brendan19,

Do a search. Lots of guys here run those type/style wheels in a variety of sizes. Then you can see how they look on the NSX. Search is your friend. :smile:
 
I'm running 17x9 +18 Regamasters with 235/40/17s in the rear and it pokes a few mm. It's stock height right now, so once it's lowered, it will come out flush. If you want more poke when lowered, go a little wider with a similar offset.

235/40/17 also has almost no stretch, so if you go wider, be sure to get a tire size that will stretch like in the photo you posted.

Hey guys, dunno if you have noticed but this is like the 3rd thread I have created since i got my nsx on what wheels sizes work, etc.
Just informing you that I have just purchased a set of volk ce28 genesis (17x8+ 38 F), and (18x9.5+ 34 rear) thanks for your help on fitment, probably would of got it wrong without all your advice.
 
I am running the following:

TE37 - Mag Blue

Front - 17x8 +38

Rear - 18x9.5 +22 Concave face
Tire size 255/35/18

Rear wheel is concaved but its pretty flush... Definitely need some neg camber in the back...

I am running about -3 Deg Neg Camber...

I just got an alignment done and I have posted up the sheets for your reference...

Random question, which front bumper is that on the white 02+? I don't recall seeing it in any other photos before..
 
I like the look but isn't the idea of a concave wheel like this to clear monster calipers ?
Without the brakes to match it looks all hat no cattle to me.
