Default Switching wheels

I bought Acura wheels for the S2k. The hub bore is 64mm on the wheels, the hub on the front of the AP2 is 70mm anybody some up with a solution? I appreciate the input.

Take them to a reputable wheel shop (not a tire shop) and have them bored out to the right size.

Obviously these are not NSX wheels, so may I ask which Acura wheels you have?

Wow, tough on the new guy eh gang? Back on topic anyway, spacers are probably the cheapest way to go unless you have a buddy in a machine shop. I live in the sticks and a bore out would cost $200, I'd rather put toward the right set up.

Thank you for all of the input. To answer some of the questions... I don't think you guys were too rough on "the new guy" but...
I bought Acura "18" black chrome, A-spec wheels off a TL", I bought them because I thought they would look great with Silverstone car. (I'll post pics later)

I think I will get them bored the measly 6mm to do it right. I already will have hub centric spacers on the back to keep the proper "stagger" of the wheels. It also allows me to get more life out of my tires. I can now rotate the tires,front to back. The car will have 225/40/18's all the way around. The 1/3" narrower tire in the back, and the 1/4" wider in the front makes absolutely no difference in the look of the car.

Thanks again everyone for all your input. Ric
