I know there is one member out there that has them. I'm guessing these are factory wheels from a 97+, right? or aftermarket wheels? if aftermarket sizes/offsets will matter greatly.

otherwise, check out what the search engine came up with.

17x7 OZ Superleggera with 225/45/17 Dunlop FM901 front
18x9 OZ Superleggera with 265/35/18 Dunlop FM901 rear
(sorry not sure about the offsets)
Lowered 1.25 inches with HKS springs
*very* little rubbing in the front and only in extreme situations. (it sits a little lower in the front now that the springs have settled)
NO rubbing in the rear whatsoever. This is strange because before I put the springs on I had BFG TA/KD and I got significant rubbing in the rear over moderate bumps. The Dunlops have a rounder shoulder and look slightly narrower than the BFGs did so I guess that could make the difference. If you go with 255/35/18s in the rear you should be fine.

Sorry. I missed the whole NSX thing while i was posting. So I guess my last post was pretty useless. Anyway, I remember a while back there was a post called "Hi I post from Japan" or something like that. There were pics of a black S with gunmetal NSX wheels. I think it also had Neuspeed springs (1.5 inches?) It looked pretty mean and apparently they fit.
