yeah. that will fit no problem. You'll just have to do the standard fender roll front and rear with bumper tap trim/relocation. It shouldn't be a problem and you can fit 255 square.

A very very minor and light pull/flare might be necessary for track driving, but nothing excessive or that requires a lot of work.

Ah ok. That sounds great. Someone wants to trade my ap2v1 wheels for some ssr wheels. And I wanted to make sure of fitment. I love the aggressive stance of a square set up and having them stick out. A bit.

What wheels did you find in that size? Not a lot of wheels I know in that size but it would be a real good one for the s2k.

SSR TYPE C RS forged in a gu metal I'd say. They look clean. Just need tires.. Figured I shouldn't pass it up right? It'll handle much better with them as well. ^_^

Anyone think I should do it? These wheels are light and very wide. I don't see any negatives.. But I am always hesitant when getting parts for my car. Lol. Thanks for your opinions
