As Honda Japan offer 17" rims as an option on the S2000 what tyre do they provide with it?

I'm about to receive my ROH Adrenalin 17"ers and would like to simplify my tyre choice.

Are you making this up?

You must be referring to the Modulo 17" wheels.



I'm refering to the 6 spoke 17 inch rims which have been available for the last year and a half on the JDM.



Now, does anyone know what tyre Honda Japan have been putting on the 17" 6 spoke wheels which are optional (and currently available) in the Japanese domestic market?

Barry, they look great imo. Taka can get them for you, although they do not seem too enthusiastic of Honda JDM stuff. See this thread:

I see what you mean... Those are 16 inch wheels, same size but lighter and (maybe) stronger.

By all reports the optional six spoke BBS wheels are 16".
