Default Turning? WHY?

Long time ago, I heard that SE37K offset is not perfect to S2000...
Does anybody know why?

17 7.5 48 front, 17 8.5 45 rear

The reason I ask the question because my car already running with this wheel for two years... My imperssion is just feeling this wheel not perfectly match my car after two years driving on it. I have not much knowledge anyway. The handling..."i just feel the original has more traction than this SE37k, even it is 1 inch wider than the original...I just know after I used this SE, whenever I drove aggressive, my S turning became unsharp at corner or curve and very not accurated but rough and late to enter a turn, I already don't know how to say... not stricky and unexquisite may be the best explaination on my car. However, I already bought this wheel, can't change anymore. Besides, i'm not sure is the problem really come from the wheel. Morever, the car has lowered and installed four strut bars already. Upper and lower X bar in the front and the two strut bar in the rear, and do not have accident before. Camber in the front has set to negative 1.5 and rear negative 2.25. I did decided to add two more stabilizer to see whether it help or not...but because it's expensive and I don't know it help or not, so I hope can collect some information and advices here first.

Finally, hope those kindly who had knowledge can tell me the most possible problems u may think? Or give me some advices to help improve the car's on turning; even just a little, i already feel please & happy... Thank You...

What kind of tires are you running? The stock S02's are very sticky.
