Thats quite large to fit on an S2000 without a lot of fender work.

Offset is good but you need something more in the 9-9.5 neighboorhood...10.5 is tremendous as you would need to wrap a 265 around it at least...I would pass

Needs much higher offset, I'd think.

It would just require an aggressive roll/ pull to run 265s. You would have 2mm more clearance than me with 10mm wider tires.

10.5 is overkill to run 265s. Dunlop's Direzza Z2 now comes in a 285...

I'm running 17x10 +38 right now 255 all around on the track. stock fenders heavy roll and pull. this would actually be 3mm "tucked in then what I currently have. 15mm wider on the inside. would be sweet to see some 285's all around...

You can fit a 315 on a 18x11 rear with 8.5" backspacing with just a roll and mild flare.

That does seem like a difficult fit on a stock body. I would think the 18x9.5 +45 would be the better option with 265s. Probably lighter as well.
