yah i was gonna suggest to get that look go buy a VW and bitch about how you only have an 8 valve and tell people to wait till you get a 16 valve.

then go get a 12 inch wide wheel and stretch a 185 tire onto it and wonder why you cant seem to get up a driveway to save your life.

To make ur car look like that your goign to have to get low off set so anything lower than 35 will do. Personally i was going to get 17x10 +28s in the rear and 17x9s +35 in the front. You also need to stretch your tires and you need to find a place that knows how to do this. You can't simply just pop tires on a wide wheel and expect them to stretch. There is a process which i forget lol my friend told me one day. you'll prolly be running 225s in the rear and 215s in the front if you want to stretch them out and go for the hellaflush look.

Also you will need to get coilovers. BC coilovers, buddy club N+, or tein basics will work. Not sure about the tein basics. A lot of people use D2 coilovers, but they're literally crap from what i hear from the track guys. But if you wanna go low those are the coilovers to go with at least in the 240sx world.

You want to get adjustable camber kit for the front and toe arms to adjust your rear camber. I forget what else there was to get but... yeah

In total your going to spend roughly 3000+ dollars for this setup lol.... Go through tires like crazy.... and eff up your CR....

for me it was either stance out my s2000 or boost it and i ended up going with the boosted route which cost me 8000+ already, but yeahhhh stance done right isn't cheap.

wheels 1000+ (personally if i were to stance my car out i would get verresteons.)
tires 600+
coilovers 800+
rear toe 150+
front camber 450+
alignment 75 bucks (its also hard to find someone that will allow your car to be aligned at their shop since your car is low they don't want to break anything and be held liable)

lol you guys are too hard on this guy.... just help him out if he wants to stance his CR out lol... I'd rather see a stanced out CR than some of the haggered shit that is done to a s2000.... neons and flame decals etc.... I don't think i've seen a stanced CR out before and i'm sure if you do it right and get a nice setup like the one i listed above you'll have yourself page on canibeat, stancenation, or any one of those stance websites. Personally i like that berlina black s2000 you have the picture of.... i think that is one of the nicest stanced out cars around haha....

polished Varrstoens wheels in 18×9.5 (+12) & 18×10.5 (+15) rears were a bit too aggressive for the stock S2K body so Thomas had some fender and camber work done.

Hope this helps bud haha.... These are their setups and offsets etc.. so yeah... your going to have to relocate your rear bumper tabs and probably roll your fenders.... depending on where in texas your from there are a couple of people that have stanced out s2000s out there that will probably help you out if you ask them.
