black work lugs=no locks
locks only on blue/red


red fade to pink, hence the blue nuts.

wheels are only staying on car few days-->few weeks depending. so.. oh well

right now im trying to decide colors on a KEEPER SET.. yeah i sed it...

i'll defend rijowysock

from the looks of the pictures the cars stance will work. I'm not sure how stretched the tire is and how flush the tire is actually to the fender with the angle of that picture. the only possible rubbing issue he may have is when he's at full lock(steering wheel turned all the way)... Big props to you buddy, I spent weeks and weeks trying to get the specs i wanted for my wheels 18x9/18x10 and i've been happily beating the shit out of my car for 2 years with ZERO rubbing issues even at full lock. the only issue to run these aggressive stances is the amount of camber the S2000 naturally gets when you slam the car.

if you're all about stance and looks rock it out and do it, if you like to drive and have a good time then do it. but if you're a true driving enthusiast autox/road racing i would not suggest these wheel stances.

go move ur suspension ;-)


keeping paint on car?

dont understand the logic
The top goes in but the bottom goes further out (unless your suspension arms are perfectly horizontal at rest, which I doubt).

If your tires stick out, they'll kick up rocks and debris on your paint, chipping it fairly quickly.
