17x9.0 in rear with offset(+45,+63??)
anybody running this set up or anyone know if it will work well with good ride durability and good digs like for some fun street racing
2. wat kind of tires would run well w/ this set up i was thinkin 225 in front and 245 in rear
3. if i went this route or something like it would i need to get some kind of suspension? i dont know anything bout suspension and maybe a thread or some help to brush me up on it would be nice! and if i got these tires and rims would it make my car look like the infamous 4x4 thanks!

On order I have Volk CE28Ns in Diamond Black, which i may end up having to sell before I even mount them. Sizes are as follows:
17x7.5 +50mm, Dunlop Z1 225/45/17
17x9 +63mm, Dunlop Z1 255/40/17
What wheels you looking for?
17x7.5 +50mm, Dunlop Z1 225/45/17
17x9 +63mm, Dunlop Z1 255/40/17

You probably need to just to a search in the wheel and tire section and just start looking around to help. Those questions are just to vague for us to be able to help. Stock offsets for the S2000 are Front +50, Rear +63, but a lot of aftermarket wheels are around +50 or even in the +40s, just be know that if you go too wide with incorrect offsets, you will run into rubbing issues.
I love how everyone is just trying to sell their wheels to you!!
All the wheels that have popped up are nice though!!
