Why the wheels? Why coilovers? What are your plans for the S? Have you actually driven an S before? Why are you so sure you need coilovers? Are you sure the wheels will fit the S?
Yes, I have driven one. About the wheels, I like the mesh style. I'm unsure about how the fitment will be achieved, hence my question. I'm just looking at options. I'm planning to run rather low to fit the theme of my build so I will need coilovers. My plans for the car will be heavily inspired by Japan's shakotan style (equivalent to Stance here in the States) so I will be taking a lot of design cues from well known vehicles of that movement.

Welcome

If you go on facebook check out S2K tech and talk there are many guys that stance there S2000. +48 Front and +55 rear is pretty much perfect S2000 wheel fitment. Going to a +18 to +20 offset requires a lot of alteration and work. If you are sure you want to do this it would be best to look for an S2000 that this work has already been done or buy a theft recovery/rebuilt title car. The advantage to a rebuilt car is low price and your not destroying a right car Good luck with your dream S2000
