I've seen 17x10s +22mm on S2s & they look awesome. 90% of people in here don't track the S2 so it wouldn't matter.

Doesn't really matter if you track or not driving an S on the streets with 215s on all 4 corners is borderline dangerous unless your driving very conservatively. Personally don't understand why anyone purposefully takes a car and modifies it so it performs worse than stock...

I'm on 215s up front & its fine. I drive it like any normal car. I wouldn't stretch 215s on a x10 but on a x8 no problem at all. My rears are 235s. Go to rimtuck & look up s2000 on there it'll give you an idea. Personally if you're not going for the deep dish look there isn't a need to get with low offsets.

Yea 215 up front is fine, they come stock that size. It is going down to 215 in the rear that is silly

If you did the same thing, but with 225's, it wouldn't look nearly as stretched. Doesn't seem like much, but that extra size helps it look alot better.

IMO, just go with +44 all around and run 255's.
