My 18s weigh 1.1lbs heavier than stock (fronts) and 1.7lbs heavier than stock in the rear.
What is this "heavier than stock" that you speak of?

17" forged FTW!!! (Well... actually, 16" forged FTW!!! )

16" = Function above all else.
17" = Function before form.
18" = Form before function.
19" = WTF?

Those are one of the wheels that require 18s to look really good on the S2000. That's a sick car you have - very tastefully modified.
Thanks!

i think 18's will look better for 2pc or 3pc wheels, but you wanna get the TE37's. stick with 17's

old school thinking... would you be surprised if 18s on an S to better around a track than 16s? (wide rubber/short sidewall) - wide lightweight 18s

The only thing about going with 17's is like others said, you definately need a drop. I want to go lower then I already am, because I find with the polished lip of my LE's they look a little small. My car is dropped on Skunk2 springs BTW.
