Default FR500 wheels

Heh, what do you guys think about these on an S2K?

My last car was a vortech supercharged mustang GT (2002) which is why I got the idea of putting them on my s2k. I also found pictures of them on one already!

If the offset was any more aggressive, you and the car next to yours could share the same wheels at the same time...

Unless you guys would like to suggest some wheels I can get for less than $1000. I don't think I want to work on the fenders or have them standing out that far.

I think that's the dumbest thing I've ever seen. Great way to ruin an S2000.

Agree with all of the above. Those wheels with stretched tires are so stupid. The best choices for rims under $1K are :Enkei RPF1, TSW Interlagos or Nurburing, or TR Motorsports C3 I think (only get them from Tire Rack) or Kosei K1-TS or something (looks like RPF1 but cheaper). All of these are lightweight and good performance.

RPF1 you can run either 17x9 +45 square (with fender rolling) or 17x8+45 and 17x9 +45 (still need to roll but less up front)

Interlagos and Nurburging and TR Motorsports you can run 17x9 +63 square and shouldn't rub (or run the 17x7.5 or 17x8 up front)

Kosei comes in same sizes as RPF1

Also, keep an eye out on classifieds and may find a good used deal.
