Maybe you have to bore the center hub. The bbs I bought not too long ago were too small for the s2k. So I had to bore it to size.

they're rota's and usually with aftermarket wheels, they have a huge center bore for universal fittment (probably around 73.1 or so)

and as far as width and offset, 17x8+48 rolling on 225 tires will fit no problem

So you should be good.

Non staggered rims + non stag tires on the S? You're asking for FAIL...

Do some research on your own and find out what fits.



Look in the rim/tire forum

@SOHCmyDOHC tell that to the autox guys! lol. but you're right.

@OP
for daily driving, most peeps would recommend to keep the staggered stance.

just for reference, i have 18x8+48/225 in the front and 18x9.5+65/265in the back. No fender mods. -1.5 camber all around. no rubbing and i'm dropped looooowwww.

you should stick with getting s2k spec wheels. you'll get more out of the car that way.

but if you're all show no go, pick those rota's up!
