Thumbs down INSANE S2000's Can I make this work?

Berlina Black, with these in Gloss black dropped on some Skunk Springs perhaps?


Do you guys think I can make this set up work with 245's in the back, is this just tooo much, ???? (picture Berlina Black, with these wheels in Gloss black.........)


I don't even think this guy rolled the fenders? That possible I think I will need springs that drop me like 2".........
















SORRY!! Made a huge mistake on my post the first time... The rear tires are indeed 245/35/18. It was a typo I wasn't aware of until now... Thanks!

--------------

Setup-
Front: 18x7.5 +48mm, Toyo T1R 225/40/18, -1.5 deg
Rear: 18x9.5 +38mm, Toyo T1R 245/35/18, -3.1 deg (fenders fully tucked)
Suspension: Bilstein PSS9 @ minimum height, 8/9 damper (thanks Keith)

Would look even more insane if you bought wheels that actually fit the car.

Both of those cars are going to rub on the fenders on bumps. You are going to need to roll the fenders and run more negative camber to get those wheels to work.

Despite you being a dick, I do agree, however I am willing to do some fender work to have this look. I think it looks great

If you want to save some money (knock off) go with Konig runaways, they look pretty close those wheels. I just got the V2's check them out.
