Welcome ,please disengage caps.Online that is akin to yelling:smile: To help you please post the size of your tires.Also how low is the car? Post a pic from the side or measure the distance between the low point of the car to level ground.Low point being the jack points along side rails or spoiler.

Welcome Online



1. Whats Tire Size?
2. Whats rim Offset? Wheel Adapters may correct..
3. Verify Shocks and Springs you have... Maybe Adjustable...
4. What is it rubbing? Fender, Fender Well, Brake Caliper, Spring, etc.....Ground?

Might be several fixes, but you must give as much detail as possible and a pic or 2. 17inch in the front with the right offset generally dont rub even with a 2inch drop IMO. Most have more issues with the lip scrubbing then the wheel rub issue....

I had 17 inch on the front of my NSX with a 2.5 inch drop (previous owner)....The black inner liner to the wheel well was removed and that ended that.... Eventually I raised the car up 1inch and went with and 18inch with no issues...

if you have a full coilover, the previous owner cared a lil about performance...

Welcome on the forum of insane of beautiful car :smile: ! can you better describe the noise than you hear? you hear this noise all the time? , when you turn the wheel? , when you pass to the top of a bump? , when you operate the brake? , it is a noise of friction or shock?
have photographs of your car ?…, much of happiness with your beautiful NSX :smile:
