Ted, I am running TE-37 17x7.5 +48, 17x8.5 +50.

Front is more than fine. I am running 245 in the rear with no rubbing, but it's running close. If you were to get those LE28N though, I would get no wider than 235 in the rear...and you def. can't drop the car.


Don't they have the 17" C28N in perfect offset for S2000? Or do you have your mind set for the "bling" in 18" LE28N?
