Default S2000 Aggressive Offset

Hey everyone, I really want an s2000, I want it to be hellaflush!
I wanna run on work meister s1's, I am thinking 17 or 18 inch wheels, 8.5 wide front and 9.5 wide rear, with a +30 offset all around or even less, I want to stretch the tires but not so much, just some. Do you guys know how much negative camber this will take, how much fender rolling, or if it will even work, what size tires to run if I stretch them a little? Thanks in Advance!

This is just too cute and precious for words!


Know this: Whatever wheel width and tire width you go with for +30 offset wheels, you could've gone an inch wider on wheels and three sizes wider (30mm) on tires with +43 offset while having the same amount of "hellaflushness".

Don't fixate on OFFSET alone. Nothing looks much worse than an otherwise proper sports car on skinny wheels/tires that are shoved way outboard.

Before asking any of these questions, go to a hellflush forum and you will learn a lot! Also check out the stance thread in the gallery, some people post up their specs and you should go from there

as stated. offset is half the battle. width is a huge factor as well

Every tire is going to be slightly different from one to the next. There is no way somebody can tell you how much you will need to roll your fenders. You are going to need more that a fender lip roll and a lot of negative camber to make this work is all I can say.
