Default Ordering New Wheels

Well, as many of you know, one of my rear wheels was bent. I tried to order new rear wheels, but they would have to make them and it would take 5-6 weeks to get in. So, I am about to order a new set of wheels right now. I will have them on by this weekend and hopefully will be over at Dustin's house this weekend (if he has time). I got my intake, Craftsquares, and splitter (hopefully will be here) to install. Think youll have time Dustin? Ill treat you to dinner for sure after this one. Ill post pics this weekend. Can somebody confirm that I will not rub as much as my shitty offset wheels right now with these offsets:

18x8 +55 fronts
18x9 +60 rears

These are the recommended offsets on the wheel webpage for our car, but I wanna confirm these before I place my order in about 20 mins. HELP!

Nevermind, I just called Jim at Tirerack and he said that they are a pretty good offset for the car. Thanks Karim for his # in the thread from before! Hes a nice guy! Im gonna order 2 tires from him in a couple of weeks.

Yeah, that's a better offset than 99% of the crappy aftermarket wheels out there in "s2000 fitments."

Install party at Dustin's place

That makes me feel a lot better about my order, especially coming from the almighty Ludedude.

Ryan,

What rims did you order?

BTW, if you want to install the mirrors this weekend let me know.
