Hey just got a 2001 S2000 and I was wondering what I should do about rims.

Should I buy wider rims for the back?
Is it okay to buy the same size rims for front and rear or will this mess my ride up (the handling of the car)?


what size do u guys suggest? I don't plan on lowering my car at all either. I want a rim that will not make my car looked jacked up but I also want to fill the wheel well.

And also, are there any rims that you guys have seen out there that have caught your eye. I am lookin at gold with the machine lip.

 

forgot to add my ride is black

 

Search!!!! please...

Typically you want to keep the ratio the same as it is front to back or atleast close...

Many people run the same size aswell but they are also running much wider wheels typically 9" or 9.5" all around on stock body S's...

You can run 8" up front and 9.5" in the rear FAIRLY common on the boards. Or you can go wild like me and a few others which chose to go Big!

9" up front and 10" rear...

More importantly offsets come in to play and can make a big difference on what fits and what requires modification.

For example: My setup 18 x 9 +40 (high disk face "meant for BBK's") and 18 x 10 +37....

Both require me to roll the inner lip of my fenders and to use negative camber and tilt the wheels inward... Pulling fenders out can also help making your sizes fit.

I hope this gives you a lil insight on the subject
