I won't complain about the stupid photos of a guy opening a box, but I certainly could do without the inclusion of the nasty toes...

You would need a high 50 to 60mm offset. The one in the photo is a 30mm offset and would not work.

55 to 60 front

65 to 70 rear


That centerbore will not fit on the front of a S2000.


Rota make great track wheels (fairly light, strong, cheap). I have ~30 track days on Rota Slipstreams and Subzeroes on my old WRX/STI with no issues.


Subydude,
If you could get a batch of hubcentric Rota made up (17x7.5 and 17x9 with ET 60 and 70 respectively) you would probably sell a lot to the folks who actually track their cars.

i have them on my S, theyre alright but they rub (stock height), rears need to be a minimum of a 55 or 60 the 50 sticks out way too much
