Look authentic to me as well. He doesnt look to be running enough camber for those to be 9+22. Maybe 9.5 +35....

They definitely aren't rotas I can tell you that much. Look more like real te37s and one of the areas you can distinguish them by is the lug nut dish area. on te37s its more bowl shaped and looks very round. This is how the rotas look vs the te37

18x8 18x9 +38 All around. These were on a 225 Front and a 245 Rear tire. My old setup, I miss it!

I don't have too much of a problem with people running rotas with volk stickers so long as they fess up about and don't try to claim they are real. A buddy of mine put the stickers on his and it just made the wheel look so much better but if you asked him he'd tell you they were just rotas. Real deal is still better though.

no problem w/ me running rotas/replicas. but putting stickers on it is taking it a little too far.

Hi all, I posted this on the wheels and tires forum but its pretty quiet over there. I think i'll get more responses here, so here's another 'will it fit' question:

Got a great price on a set of NSX wheels, specs as follows:

17x7.5 +43
18x8.5 +40

I'm planning to run OEM front tires spec, so the 215s
and pretty aggressive rear tires 255/35/18s

I'm lowered on tein monoflexes currently 1 finger gap all around
and -2.3camber in the back

haven't rolled any fenders yet.

question is will it fit without further work?
if no, what's needed to make it fit? thanks!
Those sizes are very easy and a 255 tire isn't very aggressive for your width and offset lol.

I say roll the fenders and give them a slight flare and you can probably slam the car and they will still fit easily. I would also go with a 245 on the rear wheels just so the tire isn't oversquare on the rim. An 8.5 really shouldn't run a 255 IMO.
