How bad is 18x10 and 18x7.5 on fd
I already know the answer but just need a little help passing up this deal. Its a set fo 57f pro's in 18x10+42 and 18x7.5+38 (the forged 2 peice model). It is a rediculously unbelivable price, literally rediculous. These should fit according to jimlab's caculator but I dont want the understeer. Anyone know what car this fitment is made for nsx right??? Maybe I should buy them throw on a set of so-2's I already have and sell them when I burn up the tires. The deal is so go I think I still make of it in the end. I already spent a ton on m2 coilovers, link, arms, and sways, the only thing I need is rims and some swaybar brackets. I hate to halfass on the rims.

What size tire do you plan on mounting on the 18x7.5" rims? You'll be limited to a 235 or so.....
I have 255/35/18's on my 18x9 57Pros up front and 275/35/18's out back on 18x10's for the street.
You have done everything else right on your car... why save a few bucks and have a subpar setup? That certainly won't be good for not trying to understeer.
Get some CCW's and put 18x10's all the way around..... no understeer problems.

Im still waiting on aspec to get back to me on a price of ccw's. This was just a incredable deal to say the least. My last rx7 had fm/10's and thats what I realy want but cant justify it for a car that is only worth 20k. I'm almost positive Ill end up getting 18x10 +50mm ccw's clasic street model w/ brushed centers. I just think it will make our cars look VERY simular. 99 front, ccw's, oem sides, ls1/t56, ect. Maybe I just wont paint the car silver as planed so they dont exactly alike. Im still looking into getting the RO_JA wheel made by rays for the front in 18x9. Its just a little unsetteling to have to pay significantly more than double for the 2rojas vs. the 2 gram lights. Its the exact same whell just a diffrent sticker.

Considering you are in VA and I'm in CA.... build the car as you want!
BTW- It will be very difficult to sell only 2 rims.... especially since the lead time to order them is 3-4 months out.
