I wouldnt say thats the only offset. But if you wanna match what Amuse uses. Then yes. You can of course run a +20 It would tuck in more then. I'd use those measurements for reference for 18x10 +15 and adjust accordingly so overall size is still the same if you say run a wider wheel with a higher offset. Like a +22 offset or something with a 10.5 wheel. Whoever you buy your wheels from should be able to help you figure it out. But just work with the number of 18x10 +15 offset.

Don't go too skinny in the front compaired to the rear or you will induce crazy understeer on the car.really on the S2000 you don't want to go more then a 3 size difference to keep the balance close. since you will be running a 10.5 rear you could go say 285/295 rear with a 255/265. unless you prefer a car that is a little more understeer/ oversteer in that case just adjust the tires to what you prefer. closer size more oversteer, farther sizes more understeer.

after talking to mackin industries, and looking at the 3 demo/street amuse gt1 car's in japan. They are running 18x10.5 +18 offset Apparently Rays doesnt make a CE28 in 18x10 +15 offset. Probably miscommunication/typo with the Option mag that features the car. Either way thats good news for us. An even wider wheel
