Default Getting bored with my wheels....

Whats up fellahs,

I'm still new to the offset thing but have read the wheel fitment guide and played around with a few calculators.

I'm looking into this wheel setup

18x8 +30 up front
and
18x9.5 +23 out back.

225/40-18

255/35-18

I'd be buying these used, so if it wont work for me then just off to look at another set of wheels.

From what I understand from what Ive read and calculated esp when lowered pretty damn low on coilovers, these will be too aggressive for the S2000.

I have no problem with rolling the fenders, even pulling a bit, but I dont want to do any major fender modifications to avoid rubbing.

So before I wrote these off for good I figured I'd ask opinions... what do you guys think? too agressive without serious modification to fenders? or get away without rubbing with some tab relocation/fender rolling?

Those offsets are very aggressive. +35 is Extreme. +40 to +45 is "flush", +50 to +55 is easy, +55 to +65 is stock

I have -1 front and -2 rear camber. Usually anything under +45 requires more than -3 camber, which is pretty extreme.

The funny thing is that the tire sizes are perfect. What were the wheels on?
