My 20 year old 16"/17" Speedline Mistral wheels have cracked, I'd like to stay with this size since my 3 Bridgestone tires have only 3K miles. Who makes 7.5mm x16, 8.5mm x17 35;114 wheels?

Honda/Acura does. You could look for a used set of 1994-2001 NSX wheels. Or spend a whole lot of money to buy them new from the dealer.
Incidentally, the dimensions on the wheels (16x7, 17x8.5) are in inches, not millimeters. A wheel 8.5 mm wide would be really, really, REALLY skinny.

Ok Ken, got me on the size there, are you aware of ANY aftermarket wheels in the 16" and 17" size? Tire Rack doesn't even list this size. Are the bigger size wheels that much an improvement on performance? Really hate to get ride of the 3 Bridgestones left, only 3K miles..
the volk racing ce-28n,which is a very nice,very light wheel,is made in 16/17 i believe-

although when i looked at the distributor's site more closely,it appears the 16"wheel is 8-spoke,and the 17 is 10-spoke-

goodluck finding high performance tires for 16/17 for a customers NSX I had to find one tire in Oregon, one tire in Ohio, and 2 in Orlando FL. cost 1700 not including shipping. these were Potezza RE-11 I think... yeah you can prob find Khumos for 48.00 dollars but do you really wanna put your life on 48.00 dollar tires made in Korea?
so I was FORCED to go up to the stock 05 rims of 17/17 and now I have a plethora of tire selections and brands to pick from.
I loved my 2001 rims and my car was lower with them :frown: 17/17 raised it up a bit but not to bad. I like my NSX slammed LOL

you can get Enkei RPF1s in 16/17 as well.
Front 16X7.0, +43 offset
Rear: 17X8.5, +40 offset
stock 94-01 wheels are obviously another option as well. The enkeis are a bit lighter.
