what front tyres do you have as a 215 wouldn't stretch like that on a 7" wheel?

I reckon there 8"
OEM S2000 specific RE050 are very narrow and look stretched like that on a 7" wheel. They would look rediculous on an 8" wheel.

It looks great in those pictures, lower the front a little Would be good.

Have you seen the APR front lips? Would suit your car very well!

lower the front or raise the back for a nice angle of rake.

Quite excited about fitting mine now, Si. I have the same ones, shiny new, in the box.

8" front and 9" rear. Yokohamas for them are going to cost
