What is up with you people. If i were talking about Work or Volk wheels you guys would have a masterbating frenzy. you all are so bland and fit into the norm. break out and try different stuff. Because i wanna try a 20,19 look the haters come out in full force. I see you guys by wheels to impress other guys, i like to buy things that catch the eyes of females. majority of females do not know the diff between the weight in the wheels and what Volks and Works are, just guys no that.

forget these guys. put the biggest wheels you want on your car if you so choose. your sig says you're making 470whp? man i wouldn't be worried about slowing your car down if i was you!
do what YOU want. at least know that some people here will support you.
Mehhh i would never put anything other than a 18 inch wheel in the s2k. Mainly for the reason that it throws the whole car out of proportion. I love a nice 20 inch rim on a 350Z but never on the s2k it would be silly. But this is all coming from someone who is perfectly happy with the factory wheel. Do what you want its your car, but if your worried about opinion than dont because mostly everyone who knows anything about cars might say it looks retarded.
EDIT: about your comment on the Work/volk wheels. People like those because they are generally gorgious wheels on the s2k and also most people dont put 20 inch work/volks on their S2k's either...... Just saying.
EDIT AGAIN (SRY): im pretty sure i a female that doesnt care about cars all that much is gonna notice the size difference of your Wheel. You would prabably get more chicks since thats what u want out of this with a 18 inch wheel then a 20.... again this is just my logic. (no hate intended out of any of this)
Sorry I posted. My initial post was to clarify what someone posted earlier about the relationship of unsprung weight vs sprung weight.
Personally, I think the DUB Pimpstars were developed for the adolescent whigger (or wigger) rice boyz that were trying to rice up an urban assault vehicle.
I do have a coupe of pictures of my car that you might like.
Have a nice day.

I agree that aesthetics are the main reason why most people upgrade their wheels. And I agree that most people who street drive their car will never notice a significant difference.
That being said, aesthetically, I think 19 and 20's are too big for a s2000. 17's and 18's match the car best IMO.
Girls generally dont notice wheels at all IMO. I think they DO notice the overall feel and flow of a car. And in that respect, if you are trying to impress girls I would try and make the entire car work together as best possible, and a 19" 20" setup would draw the wrong kind of attention to your car.
I don't pay your car payment though... so ignore my and everybody elses opinion and do what ever interests you and conform with whichever group makes you happy
