Wider RE070s Possible? - Page 2

scottjua · 08-06-2006, 09:51 AM

Just did a little research and Yes, the NSX-R's RE070s are a bit wider than the STi's: "255/40ZR low profile tires (rear)" If those could be imported affordably that would be pretty neato. ^_^ oh...btw... the NSX-R runs 17" wheels front and back (fronts are 215/40ZR low profile tires (front) )

+1 on the JDM RE070's. They are 235/45ZR17.
just need to find an importer for the tires or i've seen some poeple that buy used JDM wheels that get these tires with minimal tread wear.

Stock size is 235/45/17 its not much diff than the 225's(STi) but ??

I ran the A046 for a few months, I wasnt that impressed with it really, I like the RE070 better than it.

I would buy a 245

and also, if I'm not mistaken the NSX brings RE040's

not sure about the US and JDM NSX and NSX-T, but the NSX-R definitely has RE070s.

LOL and you could spend 1/2 that amount and get an excellent alternative to the RE070s in a bigger size.
