Two Wheel Options on the NX2K
need some help going with some rims.

I have two options one is 15x8 OG Old SKool

wheel

I think I like it the best but just do not know about the 8 inch width on it since stock NXs run 6.5 inches and this would increase 1.5 inch.



and the j spec which I like a lot and it comes in a more managable width.

7 inches.



so two options and I know the one I would like to get only if they made it in a 7 inch width.

The j-speed would be the best for the NX

What is the offset of the 8" wheel? 8" width is pretty manageable with the right offset, fender rolling in the rear and decent ride height (not too slammed).

I think +25 8" will look hot on an NX with the right meaty tires.

In my opinion you'd have a hard time making those fit properly, but it wouldn't be nearly as bad as some of the 15 x 8 wheels people have put on with +15 or even 0 offset. I think you're pushing it though. Go with something else with a better offset and/or skinnier width.

I think the J Speed would work fine. You have a wheel which is one inch in diameter larger and only a 1/2 inch wider than the stock 14x6.5JJ wheel. Run some 195/50or 55/15s and you could probably run on stock springs and not have a huge gap. I want some old school lipped wheels for the NX if I could drop stretch and roll then the happier I am.

the look nice on this old school civic
