Description
The NS1606 takes the clean silhouette of a European touring wheel and wraps it in stealth-first Matte Black. Twenty slim spokes leave a compact hub, bow gently for added barrel clearance, and rejoin at the rim to form a tight turbine pattern that moves air across the brakes while keeping unsprung weight in check. Available in 16×7, 17×7.5, and 18×8, the wheel lets you pick the side-wall height, tire cost, and brake clearance that fit your build without forcing fender tweaks. Dual 4-lug and 5-lug options (4×100 / 4×114.3 and 5×100 / 5×114.3) mean one set of NS1606s can jump from an older Civic or Miata to a modern GR86, WRX, or Civic Si with nothing more than the correct lugs. If you want understated style, easier brake cooling, and sharper steering feel in one bolt-on upgrade, the NS1606 is ready to roll.
- Streamlined turbine-mesh spoke layout distributes cornering loads evenly, giving the steering wheel a crisper, more connected feel on canyon roads and freeway cloverleafs.
- Matte Black powder coat hides brake dust, resists rock chips, and shrugs off UV fade, keeping the finish low-maintenance for year-round daily driving.
- Size range—16×7, 17×7.5, 18×8—covers 205 to 235-width tires, letting you dial in gearing, ride quality, and wheel-well fill without complex suspension changes.
- Dual 4-lug pattern (4×100 / 4×114.3) bolts directly to classics like EG/EK Civics, Miatas, and S13s, refreshing vintage builds with modern wheel tech.
- Dual 5-lug pattern (5×100 / 5×114.3) fits GR86/BRZ, WRX, Corolla GR, Civic Si, Accord Sport, and many midsize crossovers—future-proofing the wheel for chassis swaps.
- One-piece cast-aluminum construction balances impact strength with reduced unsprung mass, so shocks and struts react faster over rough pavement while surviving real-world potholes.
- Hub-centric bores and chamfered lug seats ensure vibration-free cruising, protect stud threads during tire rotations, and keep torque readings consistent after brake service.
Mount a set of NS1606s and gain sharper turn-in, cooler brakes, and a matte-black aesthetic that pairs as easily with stock paint as it does with full vinyl wraps or wide-body aero. It’s an instant style upgrade that earns its keep every time the road bends.
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.
