Default Finally. =D

2005 Silverstone.

Been wanting this for a year... Finally pulled the trigger yesterday.

Now time to plan the rims. Any suggestions? Thinking of 18" graphite CP-F Tune R's...








I'm new, be gentle.

It looks good as it is
With those wheels.

Drive it like that for a while.
Find out how good it is on OEM wheels.

Welcome.

Thanks a lot everybody. Excited to join you guys.

Yeah, looks pretty nice on stock wheels, but it could always get nicer.

'll probably go w/ a better stereo system first, cause the stock stuff is... well.... trash.

Hmm, I should downsize my pics too, heh.

Be very careful because as you may not know dust does NOT stick to Silverstone thus making it the fastest of all the colors. Enjoy

Here we go with the color wars....

Welcome, dirty, and congrats! Looks like a very nice car.

Not familiar with the wheels you suggested. Double check whatever brand you want to switch to with the wheel and tire forum. Offsets are VERY important on the S2000, and you don't want to get a wheel that makes you downsize the rubber.

Hahaha.

To Jumpy Guy: To be completely honest, the silverstone was a last minute decision because of a fall-through deal for a Spa Yellow. I wanted that yellow so... so.... SO bad... Silverstone was my second choice, of course. =]

To Chazmo: Thanks!

I'm talking about RacingHart CP-F Tune R's. I'm trying to figure out what the offset (or offsetS, if there are more than one available) configuration should be for those wheels, but am having a pretty hard time. I'm sure by the time I save up enough to actually get the wheels, I'll have figured it out.

I'm also considering the Volk CE or LE28N's. If I can afford them...
