Default OEM IS300 wheels on S2000?

I can get a set of IS300 takeoffs for almost nothing, and I was wonder if they were of any use on an S2000. I think they are off a 2002 model, and they have 5 spokes. The tires are Bridgestone Potenza RE040 in 215/45-17.

They looks like this:


This is info I have found on them:
Lexus IS300 00-up (5x114.3mm / 12x1.5 Lug-nut / 60.10mm Bore)

So the bolt pattern is compatible, and they are 17x7 with a 50mm offset. It would need much wider tires in back, but are they worthwhile to an S2000?

The hub diameter on the S2000 is 70.7mm front and 64.1mm rear
You'll never get those rims over our hubs. Are you prepared to increase the rim bore and risk the consequences of possibly weakening the rim?
The bolt pattern is the same but you wouldn't be using the Lexus lugnut. You would also have to check to see if the lug holes are compatable with our lugnuts. You may have to get aftermarket ones.
