so tru, so tru.

and on a lighter note, there are some benefits of running a stretch tire besides getting huge lip and huge dished concaved faces. For one, clearing a fender with ease with the act of running a stretched tire. Many people love this look, many people hate this look, but it's all about personal preference on how you want to look at the aspect of it. Many auto X'ers and drifters run stretched tires as a performance gain because it breaks traction faster at a flick of heel to initiate faster cornering. I for one love the stretched look as you may all know already, and running the widest possible tire for the correct "offset" is rather repetitive. You have to lose some in order to get some.

Me, Riley, and others have been talking long over the many, many, many, MANY months of how to inquire about getting huge lips and concaved faces for our cars. And gladly to say, we did it. All it took was seven years.

This is one of my personal friends car. He wanted something a little differen't and wanted to be reaaaal aggressive. **This wheel is a Required taste **

18x9.5 Rear, 18x8.5 Front +40 all around.

Since the picture below, he has indeed been running negative camber so the rears are tuck very nicely under the rear quarter panel.

Riley, I would love to see these sizes and offsets on a te37's
+3. Te37 would look so badass on an S w/ the aggressive offset.

Keep on truckin' Riley! I can't wait to see this set of nasty wheels on your car in person. PM me when you come to Tampa with these wheels on. I want to be one of the select few who get to see the beauties in rolling motion!

Geez man, why all the hostility???

I haven't checked this post for a few days, came back looking for pics of the rims on the car and this thread went down the crapper real quick. Give the guy credit where credit is due. While the fitment of his wheels may be to agressive for my tastes, I still give him mad props for taking the time to figure it out and get them mounted on the car. You can't say his car doesn't look sick with those wheels on it.

Riley you don't know me but your doing an awesome job with testing and fitting wheels on the S2000. Keep up the good work man!!!
