As far as "Innovators," I would say Riley, "Rijowysock," was one known to start pushing the limits of wheel fitment with the S2K. The blue Work Meister 3pc wheel will always be a classic to me.
Back in 06, Don and I ran the sunk face Emotions which was considered "aggresive." Even then, I got some inspiration from a Belina (Don't know his/her screen name) when I saw a pic of sunk face Emotions on the rear. I've decided to go even further and run them all around. I could of pushed the limits more with a new set of wheels, but I went through hell fitting the Emotions and until this day I still rub on big dips on the road. I know what needs to be done to run more aggresive wheels, but it's not worth it to me.
Today, standard fitting wheels tend to not be "standard" any more. Think about how many people are running aggresive wheels now...a whole lot more than a few years ago.
I give mad props to Don for showing us how far one can go with aggresive wheels on a stock bodied S2K. I'm pretty sure he'll start working on the front wheels which would be more sick!
San Diego/So Cal is really holding it down IMO. You guys have some nice rides and the S2K family is big! Not to mention most of the known shops are down in So Cal. We're all in one HUGE community, just don't start getting ahead of yourselves.

I think reading pwn'd him?
I know you weren't refering to me, but when you make such remarks/generalizations about a community I'm a part of, I don't think I need to justify my defense/response. In any case, this is my last post on this subject, pretty dissappointed that it came to this.

Some of the SD guys are starting to get ahead of themselves....you guys aren't the only ones pushing non staggered aggressive offsets
How ever, some of the you guys have the most aggressive wheel fitment on a stock body s2k and just happen to be located in SD. But give me time, a fender roller/puller and aggressive set of wheels and I will do the same.
p.s. With my current setup, when the rear springs are compressed, I can stick my finger between the fender and tire vertically and still have room to wiggle it. But I still need to pull some more to run those sizes I'm sure.
pps I wanna move to SD

a street car that gets driven on sub $1200 wheel tucking coilovers but never at the track? 
I'm not pointing fingers at you Euro

I run 9+40's non stag with 255 RE01R's and have owned just about every worthowning damper available for the S2000, none of which were in the sub $1200 range.
