Would these wheels look good on the S2000?

on another note, i really dont think its worth changing the wheels on the s2k unless you are going with something of really high quality or more functionality. i mean come on, this is a $40,000 car (in some places) your talking about..

of course this is just my opinion so take it with a grain of salt.

i dont believe their reputation is horrible, but they arnt really known as a good racing wheel manufactor either. RH isnt bad , but i have heard off their rims bending easily because most of them are cast and not forged. Of course there is volk, mugen and spoon, all of which are amazing.

ming, do they make them in the right sizes and offsets? Will you be able to keep the rears at least 15% wider than frt?

If you are serious about wheels, might I suggest you start with the short list of what will even fit, and go from there. My apologies if this is what you've already done.

BTW, those filters ship yet?

Someone posted before that the stock wheels are made by Enkei as well...the first ones do look too similar to the stock wheels, IMO.

Enkei wheels are very well made....I had RSEs on my Teg and loved them.
IMO, maybe the top ones sprayed black?
