Default Uk northwest can you help?

Hi all,

Strange as a first post I guess but I'm just getting used to this forum so please bear with me.

Basically I have a 2003 s2000 and I'm looking for some help from someone close by with a 2000 on coil overs/ lowered and maybe with wide wheels fitted ideally, for the following reason......

In 2009 I sold my 350z, wish I hadn't in hind sight but I did, due to long distance travelling at the time, decided I'd have a bit of a weekend toy in the form of a 300zx but it never really filled the gap left by the z33.

I did however buy some enkei racing s alloys for the 300 and never got round to fitting them, however, they are lovely wheels and I'd like to fit them on the 2000, I know that on my standard ride height and arches they sit proud, but I was wondering if anyone on here (and close to the northwest of the UK) is running a lowered s2000, maybe with decent camber setup or rolled arches....and if so would maybe try my wheels on their car to see if I'm wasting my time thinking that arch modification and camber will get them to fit....?

I'd really appreciate the help and will obviously bring the wheels to you/ provide butty and brew services for anyone who fancies a drive over to Blackpool.....?

Thanks in advance hopefully

Wayne.

I have put Rota Grids on my S2 9.5x18 et38 and had the rear arches rolled and also had them pulled,not recomended,where they have been pulled they have put a dent about the size of your palm above the arch.A right Feck up so now I am having the arches cut and fitting arch extensions,which is what I was trying to avoid.
