Need help from the wheel fitment gurus

[PaynNSX]

A very good customer of mine wants a set of Fikse Profile 5S wheels for his 97 NSX (see pic). Does anyone here have any experience with Fikse Profile line specifically? I've seen quite a few of the Fikse FM/5, FM/10, and Aro on NSX apps, but none of the Profile series.

Also, does anyone have any recent Fikse specific sizing tips with regard to backspacing, width, and offset. The customer is going with a 17/18 combo.

Thanks,

Devin -- Fikse has the NSX dimensions on file (I've owned a set of FM10s in the past). Give them a call. Jim's always very helpful. 17x8.0+45, 18x10.0+45 is always a good place to start. The Fikse wheels in general have very low pads since the faces are machined from billet. Make sure if they build you a set that you have adequate caliper clearance.

Cheers,
-- Chris

Thanks Chris. Glad you got my PM...I was starting to think no one had any good input about Fikse.

I will call Jim today.
