Default Rota Circuit 10's on the S?

noob question.....

I'm really leaning toward these wheels but they only make them in +45 all around as well with them being 7.5 in with. I'm not full of money so I can't afford the real mf10 wheels... Would these still work with the s? I'm lowered on tein Stech with koni yellows... I shouldn't rub right? Wish they made them in a S fitment!

Thanks Guys

Don't do it. You have an 8.5" width in the rear and 7.0" in the front from Honda. These "Circuit-10" wheels would make your rear narrow. Do not sacrifice safety/grip for looks. There are many other wheels for <1500 that fit the S2000 just fine and look good too.

So until Rota makes a staggered setup of these wheels that fit, look for another wheel.

This may sound far fetched but it is really not so uncommon if you read the forums---you may save money now by purchasing a set of wheels that do not work with the S2000 but you may pay for it in the long run with price of bodywork and parts.

just throwing it out there for feedback.... Sorry for repost.... I guess I'll just save up for the rpf's...... I'm all for saving money but I'll pass on the sacrifice for not so good fitment.....

Well, you could fit a 245 tire on a 7.5" wheel, so contact patch wouldn't change. might look stupid though.
