Default My new NSX-R replica wheels
I took a really quick pic, didn't wash the R or anything.

You can get them here (or www.sprintwheels.com).

I am awaiting OEM "H" caps to put on. (Having trouble finding a set in great condition without having to buy new)





Closer shot with red aluminum ball-type nuts (which I don't think looks as good as I thought it would).

In the link above.

What is nice about these wheels is they have OEM ball seats so you can use OEM nuts.

looks really nice. At first they looked like regular ITR wheels, when i read the description i realized they were 16's. Nice little upgrade.

Where did you get red lug nuts with the OEM (acorn-style) seat?

I haven't been able to find them anywhere.

hmm, I'd put some other lugs and some center caps on, but that's just me. The wheels themselves look great

Question: Are the NSX and USDM ITR wheels the same design? Only difference being 15" vs 17" and center cap?

$650 USD shipped to your door via EMS (Express Mail) from UK. From UK to Hawaii it was like 4-5 days due to last week's holiday weekend.

Pretty stable on the road. They are a little heavy (around 17 lbs). I had Prelude SH wheels when I first picked up the R and they feel that heavy.



On a little note, I wished the wheels were a slightly higher offset.

Higher?!? +42 is already a pretty high offset. Something like a +30-35 would be much better, and be nice and flush.

I think he probably meant lower offset. But I agree, +35 or so would be nice.

It is pretty flush at +42. I don't think you would be able to tuck the wheels.

That's actually not too bad considering oem nsx wheels FR 16x7 are around 16.5 lbs each.

In for more pictures!!
