JollySipper Posted Sunday at 12:31 AM Posted Sunday at 12:31 AM Hey, guys! I'm in the middle of an NSX kit from Tamiya........ I would really love to be able to put something on it besides the factory wheels. Would anyone of you happen to have a set of racing wheels you don't have plans for? They can be used, that's fine! They would get painted white, most likely. I would need the tires too. I have all four of these three wheel sets I could send in trade........ They can be from a kit, they don't need to be aftermarket........... Let me know if you'd like to help, thanks!
Exotics_Builder Posted Sunday at 05:35 AM Posted Sunday at 05:35 AM First, which NSX kit? The newer one or the previous generation? Then I would ask what you consider a racing wheel and if you are looking for staggered front/rear?
JollySipper Posted Sunday at 01:49 PM Author Posted Sunday at 01:49 PM Good morning, Gerry! It's the first generation Honda/Acura kit that I'm working on....... As for wheels, I believe maybe Volks wheels or similar would look really cool! Maybe even BBS wheels would work. If they were square, I may could use the factory wheels to widen the rears, maybe?
LDO Posted Sunday at 06:58 PM Posted Sunday at 06:58 PM Lots of options for BBS mesh-type wheels. I don’t know what size/offset would work with an NSX. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=bbs+wheels&_sacat=1188 Off the top of my head, the Tamiya Mercedes-Benz 500SEC “Lorinser” (a German tuner” has BBS wheels. So does the Monogram 20th Anniversary Firebird. The Mercedes is out of production and expensive. I don’t know about the Firebird. 1

Little Timmy Posted Sunday at 09:14 PM Posted Sunday at 09:14 PM That's what happens when you brake just a little too hard , you flat-spot the tires. 1
JollySipper Posted Tuesday at 12:44 AM Author Posted Tuesday at 12:44 AM Guys, I have a complete FD100 chassis that I can offer up here.............

Exotics_Builder Posted Tuesday at 11:12 PM Posted Tuesday at 11:12 PM These are tire/wheel parts that I will have to check to see if I still have them. I believe, many, if not all, are same size front/rear. If interested in any, I will check the wheel stash to confirm I still have them. 1
JollySipper Posted yesterday at 12:00 AM Author Posted yesterday at 12:00 AM Gerry, I went ahead and sent you a message! I hope that's cool............
