I think it's cool that he put slipstreams on there. Anything to make the car faster, ha! Anyway, he worked with the money he had and that is that. Not every persom can afford Volks or anything. Mind you they are great wheels though. Point being, we all like to modify our cars and we do so with the money we have. Good work!

I love the look!! Flat black would be my choice, but your car looks incredibly clean as is man. Nice work, and screw the haters on Rotas. Not everyone wants a set of $4000 wheels on a 30K car.

Makes your car look 10 years old, but aside from that... whatever paddles your canoe!

HOWEVER

The only way you can run a 245 contact patch in the rear is by using the OEM S02's, which is what my next set of rears will be. I do not think you can run 245's on a 7" wide wheel.

EDIT: I was checking TireRack and if you run 245/50/16s in the rear, then they will apparently fit a 16x7 wheel. I do not know what increasing from the 245/45 to 245/50 will do.
they do this. i was wondering why your tires didnt seem the same as mine.the rears are right at the edge of the fenders. toyo t1s.

just put them on today so i decided to take a little heat from you

I don't think I would ever put a wheel/tire package on my car that would require smaller tires. Just not good practice. I think the wheels look good, but the lack of rear tire would induce a lot of oversteer I'd assume.

I've always been a fan of Volk wheels, and I think they cater their offsets to the S2000's needs. I'm Volk man I guess.
