HP Evo/Lightning Wheels

[ABhagat]

Hello,
I've checked the search option over and over and can't seem to find anything to answer my question. Has anyone put on/attempted to put on HP Racing Evo wheels? I know nothing about wheels so I'm pretty lost right now. Does anyone have any pics of them mounted on an nsx? The ones I'm looking at are 18x8 in front, 18x9 in rear unless I can find 17s for front. The bolt pattern is 5x114.3, offset +38. Do these fit? Greatly appreciated to whoever helps! :biggrin:

Look in this section (wheels/tires) as I've seen someone posting on their HP wheels. I think they were only available in 18" so that's what they got, but I think the other sizes are due out sometime soon.

To me it's a beatufiful wheel, and I really like the look of them, especially on the NSX. The HP Evo is pretty much identical to the AZA Z2. The HP Evo is available as 18s and 19s, the AZA A2's are currently available only as 18s, but are offering the 19s soon. Both the HP and the AZA will fit without hub-centric rings, but the HP will require a very minimal (1 to 2 mm) spacer to clear the brakes. The AZA will fit perfectly without spacers.

As far as the 17's, the HP is offered in 17s, but the lip is not as big as in the 18s and 19s, but more importantly, it comes predrilled with 10 lug-nut holes, where as the 18s and 19s come pre-drilled with 5 holes. Being that the lug holes aren't concealed with a cover, they are not ideal visually to mix. Therefore I feel that your options with the HP Evo on the NSX would be 18/18 or 18/19.

Both are available with an offset of 38 all around, which works perfectly with the AZA's, and almost perfectly with the HPs. T Bell (RP-Motorsports), here on the forums, can get you the AZA's at a great price, but to my knowledge cannot offer the HPs right now. Here are some pictures of the wheels on the car. The first is the AZA Z2, and the next 3 are of the HP in 18/19, and the final one is HP in 18/18.

With the 38 offeset how big is the rear lip?

Also the AZA don't need any spacer?..how light are the rims?

They are a nice looking wheel.

where can i get that 1mm spacer and is the spacer needed for just the front or front and rear

 

[synergy004]

ON the HP wheels it is needed front and rear.

 

[saint2709]

ok, know who sells these spacers 1mm

 

[Sidra]

I'd like to know aswell

 

[RP-Motorsports]

I can get the spacers, but getting the wheels was impossible ALL WINTER (never in stock @ HP) I am currently checking again for stock status.

 

[Sidra]

are the spacers required? will it work without them?

 

[saint2709]

so have you checked with hp racing if they have the EVO's in stock

 

[KSNSX]

As an alternative to the HP wheels, check out the Enkei RPMs. They are similar in style. I got mine from RP and they fit well without spacers.

 

[synergy004]

spacers are required on all HP wheels for the X in a 38mm offset front and rear. It will not clear the caliper. only if they made a slight adjustment when being produced.
