I don't think he is using them as I think he is using the cheaper, pep-boys-style (), non-hubcentric cast aluminum spacers (would not drive with these at high speeds or on a track) that Sherwin (Brake Zone) sells?? They make better coasters than spacers

PM S2X and see if he wants to sell the H&R's

Here is a pic of the tight fitment (less than 1mm) I was able to dial in with my former Brembo's and Hyper-Black CE28N's ... absolutely no rubbing on the front tire / fender-well

Man I'm always blown away when I see something like this. I can't believe the wheel doesn't flex that 1mm and strike the caliper! Or does it?

yes but that size is for the rear wheel, not front yif you use 17x9 in front what are you going to use in the rear? please Do not tell that the amuse car has 17x9 all around
What? the Amuse car does run 17x9 all the way around. Not our fault if you don't accept it. Also one of our community members runs 17x9's in front and rear too. Learnerspermit is his user name if your interested in what size tires and offsets he's running.

becuase Learnerspermit runs 17x9 means that is normal to run 17x9 all the way around?

I didn't say it was normal, but you were acting like you didn't believe it was a real setup.

and to add to that.. the Amuse car was considered the Touge Monster by the Drift King himself.. so obviously they got something right with their setup.

yes biltein suspension, different alignment, semi slick wheels, a DC-10 rear wing, lot of carbon fiber, stripped...... the same S2000 that all of us drives.


Dark this a BBK gallery and do not want to start a discussion about Amuse car and similars.


Sorry guys in a few week I am going to post my new set up!! with no spacers

It's the amuse setup, its agressive yet effient at the track.

A lot of the JDM tuners run wider front wheels if you havent noticed yet.
