Congrats. Those are the exact wheels/sizes I'm looking to get. What tires/sizes are you going to use and do you have a BBK?

 

[kreh]

Outstanding. I can't wait to see them on the NSX

Thanks guys! I'll probably end up going with 215/40/17 in front and 265/35/18 in rear. I'm going to use these primarily for the street (I have dedicated track wheels) so I'll either go with SO3's again, or I've heard good reviews about the Sumitomo HTR Z II. Unfortunately, I won't be getting tires now until spring, since the car is going to get put away soon.

I don't have a BBK yet, but I ordered these with sufficient offset (hopefully) to accomodate the BBK in the future.

If you're going to order them, better do it soon or you won't see them until summer! Especially if you order a custom color like silver.

Awesome wheels, definitely worth the wait, congratulations

 

[GHOSTRIDER]

Nice choice in wheels. Great taste.
I can't believe it took 8 months to get them and now you are waiting 4 months to put them on.
NO WAY I'm patient enough to do that.

Congrats on the new wheels. Now we wnat pics of it installed.

Sumitomo HTR Z II...

I've heard good reviews about the Sumitomo HTR Z II.

The one thing I like about VOLK wheels above others is the variety of finishes you can get for your chosen wheels! Did these come w/ the Rays/VOLK duranuts? What vendor/importer did you deal w/?

I checked those tires mentioned above on Tire Rack... They are cheaper than Yokohama ES100's (Yoko's long-lasting mid-level performance tire) as well as having alot more sizes, and they are an ultra high-performance tire!?! Very interesting. (not to mention not even 1/2 the cost of comparably sized S0-3's!) Please remember to offer some insights to us regarding the performance when you mount your tires on the Volks. I'm curious how you'd rate them being that you previously had S0-3's!

Sean,
They look great...If $$$ is what your trying to save go with the Sumitomo's. I have them and I love them.

 

[kouasupra]

I ordered these from RP Motorsports here on Prime. Regardless of what you might read as of late, I trust him with my order, and would order from him again. They did come with the lugs you mention. I'll definitely let everyone know my comparison between SO3s and the HTR Z II.

My wife and I are building a house right now, and if she caught me spending money on tires right now, she'd have my ass!!!

 

[Osiris_x11]

just check your insurance coverage is upto date before...

... me spending money on tires right now...

Howabout a set of Wanli's... :biggrin: You can get Z-rated, low-profile, ultimate-performance (4) fronts & (4) rears for well under $500. . . lol!
