Hey guys,

I'm in love with the new AME TM-02 wheels. Only problem is that I am getting rear over fenders installed and the offsets offered in 17's are max 8.5 + 45. I want a more aggressive rear fitment to fill up the widened wheel well. I really want 17"s in the front to give the car a slighlty softer ride in the front as I have 18"s right now. How will the dynamics change by going to a 17F and 18R? Will I regret it?

 

Wow- no one with NSX fitments? Or is that 16F 17R?

 

You will loose some turn in response with the 17" wheel and tire over the front 18".

 

Thanks Jim, how will this effect the balance of the car? Is this a bad idea handling wise? I just want a little more give for a better ride and better braking over rough pavement.

 

At the limits the 17" will give a little more in the sidewall so the car will understeer a little more easily. The ride will be better.
