Okay, I have my NA1 wheels on!
2 questions now:
Center caps - has anybody been able to get the HONDA caps to fit? The NSX hole is a TAD too small.
Or, does anyone know another Honda model with the same size cap as the NSX?
Next, LUGS - I am using the stock lugs, which are fine. But there are no locks. I figure I might as well upgrade. I was looking at picking up another set of Muteki open-ended (had them before, in sig) in blue to match my interior. But I read these CANNOT be used with OEM wheels because of their taper. So, does anybody know a locking lug other than OEM that will work? I liked the idea of open-ended in blue.

You can purchase OEM honda open ended lugnuts. Order 16 1991 Honda Accord ones, have them powder coated black and buy the OEM wheel locks for the S2000CR. they will be the correct "ball" style (instead of the aftermarket acorn style) and even with powdercoating you'll still come out waaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy ahead of the outrageous JDM bling bling price.
Post some pics with your wheels. I'm currenty trying to sell off the front NSX wheels I have (4 in total) and plan to run 4 rears.

I am waiting on my new tires to be mounted/balanced.
Since the 02+ NSX rims are +60 vs. +55, meaning they are 5mm less aggressive, I was hoping to use a 10mm spacer to bring the nsX rims out about 5mm more than stock.
Question is are there spacers with integral studs or do I have to get longer studs and open ended lugs like what Fastfour suggested?

Yes I'm well aware of the H/R spacers with integral studs 
The problem is that only the 25mm spacers will FULLY cover the existing studs protruding out. Anything less will require wheels that have slots milled out so they do not hit (does that make sense?)
These are the 25mm spacers....(note how the nuts are completely covered)

As far as lugs, I would just pick up a set of NSX/CR locks.
