Default Buy tires or used wheels

So i need rear tires

I'd like to make the s2k look a little better

The problem is I'm broke and am trying to find wheels and tires that are stagerd or much less a offset that will work

I have read the what will fit guides but thats I'm assuming a ideal world I can't find any rims on cl with high positive offsets I wouldn't mind giving up some performance for some style or cost

What do u guys think

The A Tech Monoblock wheels have a +25 offset.


None of those wheels will look good on an S2000 in my opinion, and they're all probably fairly heavy. I'd buy tires now, and just save up until you can afford exactly what wheels you want.

You need new rear tires, you're broke, and you want a ton of other stuff you don't need (who doesn't?!).

My solution: forget wheels, buy tires now (making *sure* to pick the best make/model for your wants/needs/usage). Keep more money in your pocket. Enjoy greater sense of well-being.

I would say go with the tires until you can purchase the wheels you want. If I can help with the tires let me know.
