1. '00-'01 JDM/Euro 5-spoke, bright silver ("flat-end" spokes)

2. '00-'01 USDM 5-spoke, bright silver ("dish-end" spokes)

3. '00-'03 JDM optional BBS forged 6-spoke, silver

4. '02-'03 worldwide 5-spoke, light-champagne silver ("dish-end" spokes)

5. '02-'03 JDM Special Edition ("Gioire") BBS forged 6-spoke, gold

6. '??-'09 JDM/Euro optional Modulo 5-spoke, flat silver

7. '04-'05 worldwide 10-spoke, bright silver ("AP2v1" on S2Ki)

8. '06-'07 worldwide 10-spoke, bright silver ("AP2v2" on S2Ki)

9. '08-'09 worldwide 5-spoke, silver ("AP2v3" on S2Ki)

10. '08-'09 USDM CR and JDM Type-S 5-spoke, gunmetal
Good job!

On a side note, have you ever noticed how all new Hondas come with the H center cap oriented over the air stem? If you're like me, you have to make them match like that after new tires are installed all the time now...

I know they are not officially OEM Honda wheels but the TR F3 wheels (made by Enkie like the OEM wheels) appear to be the closet thing to OEM for aftermarket.

They are OEM AP2 sized (17x7 et55, 17x8.5 et 65) with factory offsets, they are hubcentric and they use the Honda ball type lugnuts (even have metal inserts like OEM wheels). The OEM Honda centercaps fit perfectly. Plus the are forged monoblocks.

I always wondered if Honda had Enkie design the wheel for the S2000 but then pulled the plug (maybe forged wheels were just too much $$$)?
