Default Non-Staggered wheels on an S2K?
I have the opportunity to get a set of RFP1's 17x7.5 all around for dirt cheap... would this look/work ridiculous? This is not a tracked car, this uprade is mainly for looks only. Any thoughts or examples?

I'd think the rears would look way too narrow. My 2 cents.

AP1 rear wheels are the same width, 7.5inches, so while not an upgrade in width I doubt they would look too narrow unless the offsets are incorrect and bring the wheel too far inboard.

Um, stock rear offset is +65mm. If offsets are in the 40s, the rears will be sticking out a good 15 to 25mm relative to stock.

yes +40 is a lower offset than OE so it would be further out
