The NS1509 may be off the current production roster, but its intricate “starburst” spoke layout still turns heads any time a clean set shows up at a meet. Twenty thin spokes split near the hub, angle outward with a gentle twist, and then rejoin at the barrel, creating a 3-D web that looks in motion even when parked. A black-machined finish underscores that drama: every spoke edge is diamond-cut to raw aluminum while the remaining surfaces remain glossy piano-black, so the wheel flashes bright highlights at speed yet hides brake dust in the shadows. Originally produced in 15×6.5, 16×7, 17×7.5, and 18×8, the NS1509 gave builders plenty of room to tailor side-wall height without straying far from OEM overall diameter. Multiple dual-drill patterns—including 4×100/4×114.3, 5×100/5×114.3, 5×110/5×112, and 5×108/5×114.3—meant one wheel family could leap from early-’90s Hondas to modern Subarus, Mazdas, and even Euro hot hatches with nothing more than the correct conical lugs. Today, a lightly used set is a quick, bolt-on way to add super-car flair and a touch of discontinued exclusivity to virtually any 4- or 5-lug project.
- Twenty-spoke split-mesh design spreads lateral and braking loads through a dense lattice, adding barrel stiffness that translates to more consistent steering feedback during rapid left-right transitions or late-brake dive-ins.
- Black-machined finish pairs a deep gloss base with CNC-cut spoke faces, delivering mirror-bright flashes under sunlight while camouflaging road grime in the dark recesses for easy day-to-day maintenance.
- Four diameters—15×6.5, 16×7, 17×7.5, and 18×8—let drivers fine-tune tire side-wall height for comfort, gearing, and brake clearance, making the wheel equally at home on daily commuters and weekend canyon cars.
- Wide-ranging dual-pattern drilling (4- and 5-lug combinations up to 5×114.3/5×120) future-proofs the wheel for chassis swaps, allowing the same set to migrate from an old EG Civic to a WRX or even a Focus ST with minimal fuss.
- One-piece cast-aluminum construction keeps unsprung weight manageable while offering the impact resistance necessary to survive rough city pavement and seasonal potholes.
- Hub-centric center bores are CNC-machined for common hub diameters, ensuring vibration-free highway cruising and protecting wheel bearings on long interstate hauls or repeated track-day heat cycles.
- Subtle step lip and recessed valve-stem pocket add dimensional polish that separates the NS1509 from generic aftermarket mesh patterns, giving any build a refined, “factory-plus” look that holds value on the second-hand market.
Discontinued wheels often vanish into obscurity, but the NS1509 continues to circulate because it checks every enthusiast box: lightweight cast strength, an unmistakable split-mesh face, and bolt-pattern versatility that spans three decades of performance platforms. If you score a set, you’re not just mounting wheels—you’re reviving a piece of tuner history that still delivers modern handling feel and eye-catching curb appeal in one simple bolt-on upgrade.
NS Wheels
Born from the performance-driven culture of XIX Wheels, NS Wheels delivers lightweight cast-aluminum designs that stand up to drift courses and daily driving alike. Since 2002 the line has targeted tuner, stance, and wide-body builders who need aggressive offsets and strong brake-clearance without luxury-grade prices. Every model is track- and drift-tested by pro drivers, then produced in popular 15- to 18-inch diameters with widths up to 9.5 inches and an array of bold finishes—classic bronze, bright whites and reds, deep blacks, plus machined or polished face options. The result is a catalogue of wheels that shave rotational mass, sharpen steering response, and give imports and compacts the attitude normally reserved for bespoke race wheels. Whether you’re dialing in fitment on a slammed Civic, sliding an FR-S through a hairpin, or fleshing out a show-quality widebody, NS Wheels brings authentic motorsport styling and real-world durability to the tuner scene.
