there are alot of people in the s2k world who frown upon tire stretching idk why....
thats because, most s2000 owners till this point, actually drove/drive thier car for the purpose it was made......

the purpose of a car is decided by the owner. For me, I purchased it for it's ability to take me from point A to point B while delivering great fun, drop dead good looks, convertible top, decent gas mileage, and honda reliability. Anything extra and the simple that fact I'm a 15 minute wheel/tire swap away from a track car is just the cherry on top.

i wanted to keep a stretch on the set up i really like the look, the spacers kinda fell into my lap my friend had them laying around so i figured i would try them out. they ended up fitting pretty nicely imo and i also liked the rear profile with all the neg camber.....

205 & 215? Stock AP1 16's run 225 in the rears


Yo alex, when are you going to run your 11.5" setup? Get a 4"+ lip on it too, but I know you'll never be able to pull off 285s in the rear...


18x10 with 245/35/18 (2.5" lip)
18x11.5 with 285/30/18 (3.5" lip)
