poll: 17x10" wheels made for S2000
As described in this thread, we are gathering interest in production of a 17x10.0 wheel made for the S2000. The wheel would be a high quality Japanese made low pressure / argon gas sealed cast wheel with flow formed inner rim & heat treating to improve tensile strength close to a forged wheel. If you are likely to purchase a set in the next 6 months, please reply to this poll by selecting which combination best fits your needs. Pricing will be in the $2000 range. Weight will be approximately 17-18 lb front and 19-20 lb rear depending on width/offset.

I have added a fourth option. I am confused why you would want to run a more aggressive offset in the rear that would require fender modification where it is possible to fit a wheel of the same width without fender modification. Can you please elaborate.
Some have asked about tires sizes. Obviously, running such larger tires will require some compromises and massaging - running these large of tires is ideal mostly for track use, however some high horsepower street driven cars may be willing to deal with the compromises for the added traction. The 17x8/17x10 would support 235/40-17/275 & 40-17 and the 17x9/17x10 255/40-17 & 275/40-17 which are all available in popular R compound sizes.

17x10 +57 is basically the same fit as a 17x9 +45 with isn't that bad of a roll. A few more mm for a 52-55 just takes camber and attention to detail on the fender roll.
