I have seen some small lists of available wheels but is anyone maintaining a comprehensive list of all the wheels that fit on the S2000?

From the top of my mind I can tell you the following have applications for the S2K:

Volk
BBS
SSR
Mugen
Stark
OZ Racing (coming soon!)
Spoon
Js Racing
5Zigen
Racing Hart
Comptech (don't know the brand)
RM Racing (don't know the brand)

There are others aout there that fit but you have to watch that offset and also some don't produce wheels in two widths.

Two others to add...

HRE and Kinesis

After working with both companies, the research has been done and we've come up with some very special sizes for the S2000.
I'm now a dealer for both manufacturers after my work with them.

In a week or so I'll have an official unveiling of the rim/tire size combo with pictures. In the mean time, I'll leave you with two teasers.

While most people think 245 width tires are wide for the rear of our car, we're using them on the FRONT. On the rear we've fitted 285 width tires. This setup was possible with a lot of research and some very unique building specs.

I am very interested in increasing the tire widths on my S2000 if it will not hurt my handling. Could you post some specs here or email me? Thanks.

Guys, put a wider set of tyres on there and you're gonna screw it up. We have a hard enough time lighting up the rear tyres in order to get a decent amount of wheel spin for a quick start - put more surface area on the road and it will get worse. Same goes for the front end - the S2K won't run in the wet as it is. You put wider mothers on the front and you'll get real plough on under steer.

P.S. I hope none of you guys plan to use these when the snow stays on the terra firma.
