i had to put a spacer in the rear to clear the caliper. now i can only catch a few threads on each stud. i wanna buy some new wheels for this setup, that i wont have to use spacers with. prefer to get 17"x 7" or 17" x 8" if i could fit them. those wheels that are on it now are off a older TL.

what offset sould i look for? and are they 5/100?

 

5x114.3 don't know what offset you should look for.

how about getting extended wheel studs?

 

yeah, i plan on using extended wheel studs. but the wheel will still need a spacer...

 

but with the extended wheel studs you could use those rims

but those rims are ghey

Yeah some new wheels would look sweet. What is the offset and width on those TL's?

 

yeah, but i dont even wanna use the spacers. i want to buy something in the rays family. the TL rims are 6.5" wide... not sure of the offset either. you think its stamped some where?

 

Yeah it should say something like ET +__ (whatever), either around the outer edge of the rim, or it might be on the back of the spokes. Yeah I see why the spacers were needed, being only 17x6.5 (retarded size).

 

get new wheels, spacers are bad news prone to problems. my work doesnt even touch a car if it has spacers on it. or just get a smaller brake setup? why do you need so much stopping power? do you run 12's or something? track use?

edit: read the sig some im guessing you put down good numbers with that setup. i would just get a full wilwood or choice of brand and sell the nsx calipers

well i plan on making at least 400 (at the least). and i wanted the car to be able to go scca, or at least be ready for somthing like that. the reason for NO wilwoods in the back, is because you lose your e-brake... and i wanted to keep it. i just want to buy some 17's that fit....

 

Are you kidding?? Wilwood makes a brake setup for Hondas but doesn't provide for the e-brake??? What the hell kind of retarded setup is that
