Here is a comparison of the RS versus RSII for those asking:

RS:

I believe this is the size that Daveturbo and most people with 17/18 setup will want. Per the pdf chart linky on post#1, these have more concave look which is BBK friendly and look more flush. Some people will probably want different offset/width for 17/18 setup or 18/19 setup. At some point when the ordering start, we will have tell the vendor what sizes we want.

Per Daveturbo pm, the tire sizes are 215/40/17(17x8x37) front and 265/35/18 rear (18x10x35) or 275/35/18.

Good question Ric...was wandering the same thing
 
Guys you can pick whatever offset you want. Yes, to get the more concave GTR face you have to go 37 front, but 45 is probably the more conservative setup for the car. 37 will clear any BBK, but you can go 45, 48, 50, and 54. Factory offset is 55.

Rear choices are 45, 35, and 25, even 15 depending on wheel width. 15 will be getting into mexi flush territory.

If you go 17x8 front at 37 and 18x10 rear at 35 you are keeping the track ratio between front and rear nearly the same as stock. You are going out around 20mm in terms of offset and 1" wider of a wheel front and rear. To figure out where your rim edge lands is not hard. 1" is 25.4 mm. Factory rear for example on most NSX's is 17x9. Factory offset is 55. If you go to an offset of 35, you've pushed the center of the wheel inward and the outer edge outwards by 20mm. Same thing as taking a factory wheel and adding a 20mm spacer. If wheel widths were the same, your rim edge would be like factory with a 20mm spacer added (you went from 55 stock to 35 rsII). Now because you have a 1" wider wheel to, going from 9" stock to 10" aftermarket, you are gaining another 25mm. Half of that sits on the inside edge, half on the outside edge. So that is roughly 13mm extra (25.4/2). Now the edge of your wheel has moved out a total of 33mm. 13 of that was from the 0.5" extra you gained on the outer edge of the wheel from it being 1" wider, and 20 of it gained from changing offset from the factory 55 to aftermarket 35.

What bad economy! haha

good luck guys

I know, I didn't expect this many people either, but the fact is that this is one of the best wheels for the NSX IMO. It's one of, if not the lightest I know of. Although not forged, it is still very well built and flow formed so it is quite strong. Having a spoke every few inches also helps its strength. Unlike some bogus knock-offs it's actually... Round. LOL. it's really good looking, and it shows the brakes super well. When it is spinning, you actually ONLY see the rotor and caliper. The colors are way up to date, not like the crap colors you get from Weds. It comes in all the right sizes and offsets. And last, it's a great price for what it is. It may not be the BEST in all areas, but it is really good in all with no weak points. I looked at SO MANY wheels, finally realizing this is it. This is the best one there is. Look at the hottest NSX threads, some of the nicest looking cars... Vrooom's, ravi's, nils, the ones posted here, they all are sporting these wheels. If you have a BBK or get one, that thin spoke does not take anything away from it. We are talking under 15 pounds for the 17 and under 19 for the 18 with the now thinner I-beam spokes and even more concave than the current RS.

I haven't even mentioned resale. The used versions of the RS last on the marketplace less than any other wheel it seems. There is no doubt in my mind if anyone on this group has a set in hand... And decides to sell it here, it will go fast.

So when it's the right product AND it all comes at the right price, lots of people become interested. These things are going to look really good. I can't wait til we actually get our hands on them. Because the cost is not super high, I get to keep my OEM's as a backup, spare or track set.

Couple of pics courtesy of synth19. This is how these wheel look when rolling. If you have a BBK, they are a showcase:

Even Mister Wheel himself knows what to put on when he hits the track. :D

Guys I want to give an update. I am checking into ship times and stil taking bids from vendors. I won't share my pricing because vendors are contacting me wanting to know my lowest price so far, and I don't want to get into a "I'll do it for $5 less" kind of thing. Please stay with me, and know that I will keep updating this thread as I get more info.

Guys I am working hard for everyone here, it's another project taking up much of my time, I don't want you thinking I've lost track. Advan has started to ship 19" wheels. 18's are currently in production, and 17's after that. I was told however that we are still 8-12 weeks away. I am trying to get priority over others because of our group.
 
It's partially lighter because of the spokes, and partially lighter because of shaved metal on other parts. The spoke shapes are different. The RSII achieves a more concave visual look with the same offset. Clearances have increased slightly. The spokes curve more. On the whole it'll look similar but more modern with more detail. what are YOU asking? You thinking about going high performance? LOL

Ah I see now. I asking because i might be interested in grabbing a set just to have you feel me. I don't know about all that high performance you talking about but I like to switch things up every now and then. I get bored easy, LOL :wink:

You seems to know everything but you don't know this I love wheels. I want two more sets of wheels. Thinking about getting another set of BC's in a different finished then the one i have now and maybe get me a set of Advans RS or RSII. I got the hook up too :biggrin:!
 
Just wanted to let everyone know I have received lower pricing yet again as of tonight. So those of you that I gave my best quotes so far too, those are not valid. We are lower. Also those of you that chose semi-gloss black, your pricing is lower still. By a significant amount.
