Hi guys,

I need some help regarding offsets and would greatly appreciate your thoughts/advice . . .

I've gone through the ultimate nsx wheel guide and a few other threads but I'm still not sure . . . I'm considering the RE30's at science of speed which the website notes are in "nsx specific sizes" (17x8 +38, 18x10 +39). My car is on bilsteins on the lower perch with stock springs. Would this offset still be a good fit in light of the drop ? (no rubbing, etc)

Thanks so much

Deepak

 
Hi puravida,
Yes, these wheels are nsx specs and you should run 215/40-17 up front and you have the option of either 265/35-18 or 275/35-18 in the rear. Stock springs on the lower perch of the bilsteins gives it a nice drop but not dumped. You should be good to go.

Completely agree. Offsets and tire sizes will be perfect overall in terms of overall drivability (no rubbing) and flushness (good look).
