Default Help! Question on Wheels.

How would it be if I ran 18inch wheels in front and 19inch wheels in back? Im not sure what the offset is but its coming off of a NSX.
I was wondering if would help or take away performance?
right now I have the stock wheels.

The set is just for looks. It would take away from performance. The rims off a NSX, offset wise is not ideal for the S. You can modify them to fit. If your not up for the custom work, I think you can get away by changing the tires. I would just buy custom made rims for the S2K IMO, enless your getting the set off the NSX for basically free. You might wanna call Eurosport for a better answer 545-1658. They can help you out better than me.

what wheels are they? stock nsx wheels have been fit but aggressive fitment ones surely won't. 19's are gonna look huge, depending on the wheel design. the 19's on Nate's S didn't look out of place, tho.

18's Front, 19's back. I never saw any set ups like this yet for the S. I think they would look sick if you did them right. The right wheels/tires and drop. You ballin.

i think it would work alright for you....it might compromise performance, but not to a point you can't drive the car....it also depends on if and how dropped your car is.....heres a link to a site with some crazy wheels on ap's.....

in the end if you can deal with the sacrifice in handling and ride quality then go for it.....just food for thought
