Default Low Offset.

17x8 +35 225/45
17x9 +35 255/40

Will this offset fit the S2000? I found an amazing deal on it. It's the exact wheels that I want for my S. Would it fit with rolled fenders? Or is there anything I can do to make it fit, instead of negative camber? Thanks for your time.

No way. You'll need a widebody kit.

in order for that to fit, you're going to need both rolled fenders and negative camber

tires wont work, but you CAN fit these wheels if you are willing to roll fenders + some camber

how bad of negative camber? The S2000 is soon gonna be a trailer queen so I'm not worried about changing tires.

I am thinking in the -3* to -4* range. I would run stretched tires, 215 front and 235 rear. That might keep them from rubbing.

You can find better offsets than those... keep looking. That is just too impractical.

Damn... that's ridiculous... how much can we even adjust our camber?
