Default lil help

I am planning to get CE28N Bronze 18x7.5(50+) 18x8.5(47+) Planning to run 225 40 front and rear 255 35.I am not planning to low my S at all(maybe Yellow Koni)put it in the second(1/2 lower all the way around).Does the CE28n come with right off set for the S2000?I know not alots of wheel out there come with the right for the S...How about the LM BBS ?Does it come with the
right offset for the S?

I also planning to have Wilwood 6piston behind it.It require 30mm spacer.Can anyone explain to me,what does spacer do
and it save to have on my car?


Thanks,

An 18X8.5 wheel with a 47mm offset will not fit in the wheel well without rubbing especially with a 255/35R18 tire.

I think the BBS LM wheel will be OK in the 17" but the 18" is a 18X9.5 ET55 rear and that would be a stretch. It is the only thing they have for the car. You would need to roll the rear fender and probably run more negative camber.
You will need at least an 18X8.5 to run the 255/35R18 tires on the car.
