Oh good gravy. What size are those wheels? They look like 19x9 +20 ET or something

My opinion: Don't try to jury rig something that wasn't meant to fit on the car. Ditch the wheels, and get something that fits properly the first time.

they dont look anywhere near that agressive. i'd assume its a 19x9.5+55 out back, bbs lm fitment exept on a 19 inch wheel instead of 18. looks fine to me. roll the fenders. uk spec alignment. slam it.

Doens't look that aggressive to me. In fact, it looks pretty safe. If you haven't rolled your fenders- please run out and do it today! Don't be scared, rolling them is not as bad as it sounds. Also try relocating your bumper tab. That shoud help a lot. I did it, and I don't rub for anything now. But what are your offsets? I am guessing it is higher than +55.

those are the wheels that came on the car and they are heavy as hell so i am ditching the wheels after this week! I just needed to keep them on there for the time being so I can dyno it this weekend! I am going 17x7 in front and 18x8 in rear! I was planning to have the smaller wheels on there now but rent came up and i need a place to live cuz the s2k isn't livable lol!

I REALLY dont see the appeal of 19s on an S2000. It is a performance car with well balanced braking and handling. Throwing on Jigg-Tastic wheels ruins that.
