xtc, check this out lol. It's probably going to go for way more than I'd be willing to pay, but he has both 6 and 3 inch buffers and more importantly, the RACK! lol

I'm really curious to see how well that works. Have you tested it out yet?

Wtf, I didn't even notice that small monitor the first time. Do you do day trading to need that many monitors??
iCrap has the nexcrap 7 in his car, iCrap on the desk, and 27crap" monitors also on the desk. Craptastic.

The little monitor is just being used to monitor my temperatures, fan speeds, the time, notifications, etc.
I do all my work on the big 3 27crap" monitors... photo / video editing, and a little bit of trading.
That little tiny monitor was actually the original one i had in my car, but then i replaced it with the tablet so i decided to repurpose it for my PC.
Dont forget my samsung galaxy sCrap and my windows 8crap tablet also lol.

Last time I checked, I believe VMR makes 5x114.3 bolt pattern wheels in 19" and higher. I have 18x9.5 +45 V710 (redrilled from 5x120) on 235/40 tires, and I did not roll my fenders. I didn't measure the amount of drop I have, but I have about half a finger gap all around. I scrape the under carriage once in a while... but I don't think I've ever rubbed.
VMR says they have 18x8.5 in +35 and +45. I want to run the most concave look without any modifications.

From what I've noticed, it happens when people post the shortened version of the URL
You posted http://youtu.be / PD5HfM3DZt8
If you post the full length URL ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v= PD5HfM3DZt8 ) you won't have that problem

+35 will look more flush, and are likely more concave than +45. At 8.5" wide, +35 should fit even if you're dropped, without fender mods, given you have the right tire setup. Technically, 18x8.5 +35 should effectively stick out about 2-3mm more than 18x9.5 +45, which is what I have. I'm running 235/40/18 Hankook Ventus V12s on my 9.5" wide wheel. At 18x9.5 +45 and dropped a decent amount (half finger gap), I currently do not rub with this setup.
On an 8.5" wide wheel, my tire setup wouldn't be as stretched, and might end up rubbing (this is kinda hard to estimate IMO... I'm not really sure). Check out http://tyrestretch.com/ for pics on various setups. Things to look out for are the sidewall, and perhaps how much lip is sticking out.
I don't have any pics of my car up on azine at the moment. I've been struggling to find time to both wash her and take some decent pics. I'll try and get that in this weekend

There's a lot of people from NSXPrime that come to Houston C&C. About ~8-12 usually.
I haven't been able to find any NSXs for sale around here, Ive only seen like ~30 for sale in the nation.
