'02+ NSX wheels on S2000?
i would like to know also i found a web site for NSX wheelsi wanted to know if the 02-04 will fit ?
also i am 1.25 in lower in the front and 0.75 in lower in the back will the 17x7 front and 17x9 work?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but my logic says that the offset doesn't always affect brake clearance. It's more the design of the wheel: how much space there is between the backside of the spokes to the face of the hub. It's possible to have the same wheel in completely different offsets and have the same brake clearance behind the spokes. I would think that this is more typical of wheels that have a lip.
The '02 NSX wheels might actually fit better in the S2000 with a BBK because the spokes taper in aggressively near the center of the hub. That's whay they can't be used on early NSX's without wheels spacers, since the early cars have smaller brakes which put the calipers closer to the center of the hub.
I'm not saying the '02 NSX wheels fit the S2000 or not because I really don't know, but if they were to rub the stock calipers then going to a BBK might help clearance. Of course, if the BBK sticks out more than the stock caliper by more than the clearance gained by moving the caliper outward then you're still out of luck.
