You definitely wont need spacers with those. I run 17x8/9 +47 with a 225/255 combo and IMO, it is the perfect setup. You will most certainly need a roll, bumper tab relocation, and lots of camber.
IMO, those wheels dont look right on the S2000. You buy whatever you think looks good though. You cant go wrong with mesh type wheels or a clean 5-6 spoke wheel. 3 spoke wheels are more of an 80s-90s style that fits older car's styles.

A 20m spacer up front would be about as much as I would do. I know people run 25mm spacers a lot though. Not sure I would feel comfortable running such a big spacer. If you are simply trying to flush the stock wheels, I would advise against adding any extra stress on the bearings. Maybe try to find some AP2 wheels and you can at least have a little wider wheel/tire. Also, the car is going to ride like garbage being slammed on 16s. You will no doubt bottom out on tons of stuff and it doesnt even look good IMO. If you want slammed, at least have some aftermarket wheels to make it look tough. Otherwise it look like doo doo on ap1 wheels. No offense to the guy above.
