JMO, but I dont like Momo Arrows. Those rims would look better, the Axis Seven's! But there are better looking rims out there than those too!JMO. I saw some Work 17/18 rims on Ebay for NSX's and I think they look really nice, polished with a polished lip and there are 3 piece! Check em out! And good luck! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/ebayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=520387815&r=0&t=0

FoYoAss,
One thing I can say about these Work wheels is that they are very well made and light weight. I have the Work R2S on mine and I love it. It is the same style spokes as the VS SS, but they are 2 piece and probably lighter.
They are not $2750. Mine were around $2000 including shipping. His is 0.5 inch wider than mine, so they may be a little more. And Fuji was able to get them here (LAX) in 10 days. Not 3 months.
These are totally different style than the Axis wheels that you like though. If that is the style you prefer, I saw a set of Volk 7 spoke that is very similar to that and I know that Volk make excellent wheels. I didn't get the model number, but if you are interested, I can find out for you. The shop that I saw the set was going to have them installed on an NSX next week.
I'm not familiar with Axis, but I only trust Japanese wheels on my car. Good luck shopping! The wheel gives the car a whole new look. So choose carefully... style, weights, offsets, workmanship ...etc

I love the Se7ens, my friend has them on his 90 Integra in gunmetal. I'm a huge fan of the new colors wheels are coming out in. Like bronze, white and gunmetal. But do they make a 18 X 9.5 Se7en? I thought the widest was 8?
Why don't you look at some Racing Harts?
The ever popular C5,
or the new M5,
or the M6,
Just some suggestions. But if you want more info on those wheels goto www.dazzmotorsports.com they have all the sizes listed for each wheel.

you will want to call Dazz on the Racing Hart wheels, when I was in the market for wheels about 6 months ago the 1 piece Hart wheels are the only ones that fit. The 3 piece wheels did not fit due to caliper clearance. They may have tweaked the wheel to make it fit, or it may fit with spacers, but call to be sure. Also, the one piece wheels will be lighter.....
If they do fit, man, they are nice. I am putting r compound tires on my TE-37's and am looking for another set of wheels for street, so far I like the advan A7's, but those M6's could be the call if they fit.....

electro, I like the wheels in the picture, but not the ones on e-bay. my opinion only....
Hey Cdube, (Chris)
I saw those rims on Ebay and I think they are awesome, I love them! Since yours look like them, would you happen to have a pic?? Your car is silver right? Those are favorite colors for the NSX, silver and black! Any info would be appreciated!

All the dig pic that I have are from a 3 year old Kodak digital camera. I'll try to get a Nikon 990 to take a few pics in the next couple of days, and I'll post it for you all to see.

Electro,
I'm partial to the stock seven spoke wheels... especially chromed (I've got them on mine). I like very few aftermarket wheels, and I think even fewer would look good on an NSX. But I really like the wheel in the photo at the top of this post. Perhaps the seven spokes has something to do with it. Personally, I always think those wheels with the grayish finish, as the one in the photo, always look dirty. I think they would look great if they were chromed. To me, an NSX looks great with super shiny wheels.

Looks good!!.. If you are looking for a 7 spoke desgin, I would suggest you also look at Volk Racing/Rays Engineering TE-37's. I personally Love them in Bronze. But there is White an silver(I think) and more over you can get them in whatever color you want for $40 each rim. They are one of the lightest wheels around.
Just my $0.02

Here is my first attempt tp download these photos. Sorry it took so long! Test #1
![WorkEibach4.jpg[img]](/proxy.php?image=http%3A%2F%2Fi15.yimg.com%2F15%2F58a4fa82%2Fh%2Fe113ff83%2FWorkEibach4.jpg%5Bimg%5D&hash=c9e81b6f806a5d3c41a82648e2fa6170)
Doh! Mess up the last one. These pics were taken early in the morning. So the lighting is not the best. It was a quick job. At least you have an idea of the way my wheels look.
Model: Work Meister S2R (with lug nuts)
Color: Silver
Size: 7.0-17 5/114 ET35(F) -- 8.7 kg Weight
9.0-18 5/114 ET47(R) -- 10.1 kg Weight
BTW, I have Eibach springs. It made a world of difference on the looks department. The ride is pretty acceptable. Front spoiler clearance is around 4.5".
