Default Aftermarket wheels thread

It was so difficult to find any new aftermarket wheels for the S2K in the UK I thought it would help give ideas to those looking to see everyone elses upgrades.

I will start with mine. Car shown lowered.



These are ACE 184 18" RIMS front and rear with 43mm offset, 7.5" width

Currently fitted with TOYO 225/40 R18 rears (should have bought 245/40 R18s ) and TOYO 215/35 R18 fronts, probably better with the current rears!

Just enough offset, needed adaptor rings to reduce the hub diameter to Honda size.


Price approx

I have got to say that our cousins across the pond put some pretty awful wheels on what is a beautiful looking car, got to admit i am not a bling fan! if i had the cash i would go for the Mugen MF-10's 17's with a nice subtle drop do it for me every time.

I think people are happier to experiment in the States as things don't cost quite as much as they do here in the UK/Europe. Also this "bling" culture has a lot to answer for when it comes to ugly looking cars these days
