From what Ive seen an read, the S2000 has kinda weird offsets, right? So If I was looking for something in 17", either 205/225 or 225/245, what offset and widths would be optimal?


What are the stock offsets and widths?

Thanks

for 225/45-17's in front you'll need 7.5" wheels with about 50mm offset

for 245/40-17's in the rear you'll need 8.5" wheels with about 55mm offset

remember, offset numbers are tied to widths, one doesn't mean sh!t w/o the other, so if you go with an 8" rear you need 49mm and a 9" rear would need 67mm to keep your frt spacing consistent (fender clearance)

Enjoy!
