as what the title say...i just recently upgraded to a set of ap2 v2 wheels..so now im curious if i should get alighnment, camber and toe adjustments..im running 215/40/17 front (friend oredered the wrong thickness, suppose to be 45 but doesnt look bad) and 245/40/17 rear with .25 spacers...[ ] <----about this thick, literally!! thanks guys!!!!!...


well a lil thicker than that...just giving u guys an a idea...
oh and the car is dropped about an inch to an inch and a half..

 

Your front will just be a bit smaller - you could get it if you want the msot out of your tires but it shouldnt really affect your ride too much- probably much less than your drop springs (since you mention youre dropped).

The stock AP1 and AP2 tires are roughly the same size (diameter)

I personally prefer the AP1 style, but hey, a lot of people like teh ap2 so whatever floats your boat I think im weird in that way

 

16" ap1 oems with 225/50 in the fronts and 245/45's in the rear and your good to go!

 

If you recently dropped the car and haven't had it aligned since, then you should get an alignment.

 

thanks guys!! i just got my alignment maybe 3 weeks ago before i got the wheels..so i guess i dont need it after all..oh yeah and the front tires are abit thinner but hey its here so i gotta use it lol...but i have to say it handles alot better now..

 

225/50/16? wow, thats a bit thick of a side wall. I wouldn't go thicker than 45 in the front. Preferably 40 aside from additional feed back, the response would be much better. Your loss would be the nice road cushion of your 225/50 but hey, I don't think road cushion and S2000 should be in the same paragraph.

Your alignment should cater to how you drive your car and how OFTEN your drive your car. Is it a track car? Spirited back road runs? Drive around town on highways, daily driver, etc. Be more subtle with your alignment numbers if you daily drive the car so, as the aforementioned, you get more out of your tires. But if its a weekend only fun car and you don't drive it long distances, do with your alignment as you please :-).

 

You should be fine. I switched from stock 16s to AP2 V2s last spring.. they're great, huh..
