I think there is a fine line.... I'm flush but i don't have stretched tires and my car is still very functional.

at the end of the day, everyone has different tastes. I do hate to see people making irreversible mods to a car like the s2000.

That's the fine line:
wide wheels with unstretched wide tires =
wide wheels with tires 2 sizes too small, and there's still wheel lip =

theres a fine line with rice and jdm style! rice is wings body kits non oem tail lights/headlights etc...BUT LOW OFFSET wheels are the big deal in jdm land and very very popluar now, maybe not with older folk or people on here but take a trip to cali where honda tuning came from and all you see is super jdm ride with zero offset wheels every where. Its NOT RICE BRO

Altezza lights, ridiculous body kits, and triple stage wings also started pretty much in L.A.. Actually, the trend seems to be that if it starts in socal... stay away.

If that's your defense then...
