dope picture.

that's a similar story to my friend's nsx. he runs 615s compared to what looks like above to be either the OEM bridgestones or yokohamas... both of which are crazy expensive. though the 615s for my friend's nsx aren't too expensive (for nsx drivers, at least ), they totally add up since you go through them so fast to begin with and because they're used on his nsx. i don't remember why he said tires on the nsxs run out really fast. because of the nsx's alignment setting? because it's rear wheel drive? i forget. and because it's his DD, it just compounds the whole issue. that's what you get, i guess, when you "upgrade."

Looks like some camber wear IMO, the inside of the tire is balder than the outside a little bit

Oh yeah, more pics of the NSX or ban, that's a really nice color

Depending upon the year of the NSX (which I can't tell from the photo), it may actually be Kaiser Silver Metallic - the same as the ITR's "gunmetal" wheels.

I believe Kaiser was dropped the previous year and replaced by Silverstone, which is a tad lighter.

wow i can see the color differences btween the two pictures.

i guess the first one was because it was close up.

oh and you can see my ITR, its first in line with the hood popped.

we were at the tail of the dragon, but that the skyway, like 3000 feet (i forgot how high it was) and my car was bogging soooo badly.

elevation 3740
