so on a 17x7.5 it should be +52 and 17x8.5 it should be +59 no less? If i go less in the rear will i have problems?

You should be able to get away w/ +56 on the rear since the 255's are going to get pinched down a little on the 8.5" wheel.

The highest offset RH makes is +50.
Good Luck!

 

The rim im getting is racinghart, not RH. Racingharts that im getting is a 3 peice rim so the offset can be custom. Two different companies racingharts are imported from japan and RH is made here in the US and not 3 peice. just thought i'd clear that up.

 

Hi S2K Power...

May I ask where you're getting these Racing Harts from? I spoke with Exact Motorsports in Milpitas about 17" C2s, but Racing Hart informed them that they do not have any 17" rims for the S2000 (offsets are too high). This was about 1.5months ago, so I was just wondering if something new has come up.

Thanks in advance.
