S2000 Talk Discussions related to the S2000, its ownership and enthusiasm for it.

Is modding an S2k even worth it?

i dont know how u get for 800 unless u work for tein

i have had an acct with tein for years and price went from 17% off=bottom line wholesale to now im at like 31% off..

31% off msrp is high in the tein book, you have to deal like 15k a year in tein to do that.. anywho ur lucky.

im doing 19's cause i like em and cause im not about all that jazz.. my 19's i make weigh about 13lbs.. but due to thelarge diameter yes they have a heavier rotational mass. but i dont care.


Wow... 19" and only 13 lbs? Got any pictures? No offense, but that's kind of hard to believe. You said the wheels you "make"... so have you made wheels like these before? Could you post some pics? I'm sure the rest of the board would love to see them.

yeah, i could but i dont think i can. since im not a sponsor of the site

i currently make them for grand american race cars here in daytona to test on (they only you fiske to race)

and i make them for some close friends and people w/ $

i have 8 styles i make.. the 13lb one i was referring to i cut from solid block of 6061 t6 alum which is some strong shit we got it down to a science literally on how to get rid of the most amount of material and remain strong.. anywho thats all i want to say cause i dont wanna get banned from here by trying to sell something to the members..

maybe once i get s2k all done up all become a sponsor and then be able to show/tell you more.

Not even a website??? A pic of a friend's car? Come on... I can't be the only one who wants to see these wheels... You can link to a picture without trying to sell something. Heck, if I were you, I'd be proud as heck to show them off!

Are they the same wheels you've got on your Civic?

If that's not enough for you, save the money that you would have spent on mods to use as a down payment on a Porsche.
