Front tires are wayy too narrow, smallest I would ever run would be a 235 on a 9.5. Should have pulled your front fenders to fit wider tires. I have ran 18x9.5 +45 265/35 square and currently on 17x9.5 +38 255/40 square.

Otherwise, looks pretty good.

i tried to run 225/40 (as on the picture) but they didnt stretched and were way too out the fender, looked just shit. I'm planning to go smaller on the rear, add spacer and camber a bit more, also camber the front as atm its only -1.5 front and -2.75 rear.

The 225 on a 9.5" rim didn't fit your car, so you go down to a 215 tire on the same rim. Perhaps you should just get new front wheels, or take off your fenders, put on a proper sized tire, put a big wing on the back and say it's for the track

Nice to see an s2000 in Ireland. How common are they there? I was born in limerick and lived in cork until I was 6. (Been in the states since though, 28 now)

I wouldn't go that direction with stretching tires and all that but as long as you're happy with it, that's all that matters. The aero stuff and the color are very nice though

Are you the Mark from tamparacing? If so that is incredibly strange as I was thinking about your old red Integra earlier today. So bizarre. Really bizarre.

Great build! Super clean. Where do you live in Ireland? I visited in May, went to Dublin, Cork, and Kerry. Kissed the Blarney Stone Do the locals really piss on the stone?
Anyways, I also have 9.5 wide wheels all the way around. I had to roll and pull my front fenders a little bit, my plan was to have the wheel poke out with the tire flush on the fender. I also wrapped 225/40 around my 9.5, but they were too meaty. I ended up going with a 205/40 on the 9.5 and it's a massive stretch! I love it lol. The tire shop told me I am insane.
I did not see many modified cars while in Ireland, just alot of turbo-desiel German cars. Never saw an S2k!!
Following this build!
