Thought it might be useful for some to see how much offset the S2000 really needs.

How about +76??? What's the width of that massive rear wheel???
BTW, on that last pic with the motocycle, I hope that's not a real arm underneath it! Looks like a bad accident!

Didn't actually measure the backspacing, but if you include the tire flange ("total backspacing"?) I calculate it to be 8.91". That much backspacing won't work with anything smaller than an 18" wheel.

RT, You work on the road crew? I'm guessing you throw some bricks in the back of your S2000 and roll the fresh asphalt .
