Was considering some new wheels. Guy at Discount Tire offered me some Antera 309's. The front was 18x8 with a 45mm offset, and the rears were 18x10 with a 45mm offset also. Believe the rear tire was a 265/35/18.

Will these fit on the S2000? Will there be any rubbing?

Thanks,

PS. anyone know the price of Antera 309's?

 

18x10!!!

Yeah, they'll rub.

Against each other in the middle

 

Sime, 10's will fit with 285/30-18's if they have 72mm offset.
In fact 10.5's will fit with 75mm.

 

BTW, 265/35-18 won't look good mounted on 10" wheels

 

RT, thanks.....yes, these wheels are an unusual thing.

The shop had them for an NSX, but the guy changed his mind or something. The owner of the shop wants to give me a really great deal on them I think...otherwise he has to ship them back to Antera at a loss as they've already been mounted and driven on.

They are 45mm offset I believe. They did have the tires mounted on them and they actually looked ok! They didn't look odd. With the 45mm offset, is there anything that can be done to get these wheels to fit properly (I think that the fronts should be fine)?

Also, could I go with the 18x8' on the rear also but with a wider tire than the front?

Thanks!

 

Maybe somebody down in the "hood" can tell you how to mount them. You know, like the ones on the Skylarks that stick out so far. Be careful you don't get jacked, though.

 

Rub o rub...

 

Take a sledge hammer - maybe a 15lb or 20lb one if you can find one and hit the rear hub sideways - really hard

 

Don't listen to cmnsnse, you need at least a 25 pound sledge hammer.

 

Ok guys.......I GET the point!!!!!

Thanks for all your 'technical' responses. "Backyard Joes".......here I come. NOT!

You guys crack me up!!!

Cheers!
