I like them, but are they available in a staggered set with a bolt pattern for the S2K?

they do make them in our bolt pattern. they only make them in 18". to get good offsets and stagered on these you will probubly have to special order a set through kim at www.rotawheels.com. or go with 18x8" +48 all around.

www.subydude.com also carries a bunch of nice rota wheels, you can check them to see what they have in stock.

Call up Subydude.

You can get 'em in the right sizes. They have 18x8.5 in the back and 18x7.5 in the front.

Not sure in that color though.

You know the offests you see there are for low offset cars such as 350Z's, S14's etc etc with an ET of about 20 and below. Those are the knock off's of the NISMO LMGT4's and you will not get even close to a concave faced dish on those wheels on an S. Just a thought.

I thought I could do it like this:


P45F 8,5x18 ET48 in front
P45R 9,5x18 ET48 in rear


or even
P45F 8x18 ET38 front
P45F 9x18 ET38 rear

would it be right ?



EDIT> I'm actually riding 8,5x19 ET50 front et 9,5x19 ET?? rear

He doesn't list all the specs on the site.

Most of the subies run a offset of 48 or higher....that's fine for most of the S2k's out there.

thats understandable, but he is looking at the wrong wheel. The P45R is for Rear wheel applications and that can handle such a concaved face. He should be looking into the P45F. That picture above is all wrong and will not work with our car due to low ET. I don't want him to be dooped into buying something from what he is not clearly seeing. If he bought that wheel above, the face will indeed be convexed which look whack IMO.

Example:

P45F



P45R

I meant to mention that when I posted earlier. He could get the P25F in that color scheme and the sizes/offsets he wanted, but they won't be concave.
