Check Dali Racing website. They have choice of wheels with suitable offset for NSX.

I would try to avoid running any spacers at all. I would go at least 17x7.5 and 18x9.5 with around +40 offset. IF you ever want to do a BBk you have to run a 17x8 up front with a +38 Offset at least. Remember higher the number the more your wheel will tuck and will rpobably have to use a spacer. The lower the number the more it will stick out. IMO i think its better to have to more flush then tucked. Its up to you though.

Visually it's better to have wheels more flush IMO. It's all preference though. Use this calculator to help you.

17x7 front, go with ET=~30 (it would be better if you can get 17x7.5 ET=35 or 17x8 ET=40).
17x9 rear, go with ET=~30 too.
