Who's running 19's? Post them up.

Dangg you got the NSX wheels and still complaining about handling difference?? Replacing stock wheels just got even more complicated for me now lol

It's not the wheels that affect handling feel, it's the sidewall. If you run a tire with a 30 series sidewall you'll get similar feel compared to stock.

Here is my set up. Volks TE37 Ultra M-Spec 19x9.5 offset +44 on Advan Apex 265/35/19. Doesn't even rub in "Comfort" mode. Still debating if I should lower it.

Motegi MR924 / Continental DWS06 Plus 255/35/19

@MEK How does the handling and steering feel compared to stock?

Showing my ZE40 19X18 ET+39 wheel. Wrapped with 265/35R19 continental DSW plus.

25mm higher than stock with -2.7 camber in front and -2 ish rear. No signs of rubbing yet, but will check if it shows up later with more miles on this street set.

This. Plus a different tire compound can make a difference. ie. Pilot Sport 4S has noticeably less steering feel than the Advan Apex V601.

I just installed my FK2 Type R wheels with new Bridgestone Potenza Sport 245/35R19 tires.

Updated after 1 track day. Used the tire to run 1st seccion while waiting for the track to be dry. No rubbing at buttonwillow. 500 miles by now.

I went to the dealer for an oil change yesterday. At least three employees there questioned me about the wheels. The service tech told me while it was in the service bay they were trying to figure out what they were after determining that they are Honda products.

Same setup as I have. You'll love it. The PS4S are a sensational tyre.

Where did you source these from? (the FK2 wheels) I found one place overseas but was hoping for something local.

It would be great if you can find them on this side of the pond.

The last time I checked Tegiwa (UK) only had 2 in stock.

On a happier note, all the spy shots of the 2022(3?) CTR show 19" wheels. Even if the cars are not readily available, the wheels might be. This assumes they'll fit the FK8.

From Tegiwa in the UK. Given I'm in Australia, and would have to pay freight anyway, after not finding anyone else selling them online I just went with Tegiwa who are usually good on price anyway.

Just installed 19 inch x 8.5 Sparco Assetto Gara offset +47mm. Together with Potenza Sport 245/35R19. I like these tires a lot.

I bought mine from Tegiwa (UK) in September 2020 for $1800 shipped plus $130 import duty. I waited until my original tire needed replacing before mounting them. So far, I love the Potenza Sport tires.

Updating my experience on the 19 ZE40. Take 2 hour to clean it after cover with brake dust. No obvious rubbing unless I carry something heavy at the trunk.
