Default TE37 fitment

Hey guys,

Kinda new to the s2000 scene but just recently picked myself up one.

First things first - set of aftermarket wheels.

I found myself a set of 18x9.5 (+32) and 18x10.5 (+38).

Would rolling the guards and slight camber fit these or would some serious work be needed?

Thanks

for those widths on those offsets, if you want to run tires that fit (ie 245f & 265r) you're gonna need to roll, slight pull and run a good amount of camber

You're basically asking for your car to look like this one except your rears will stick in by 8mm and the fronts will stick in by 2mm. So here's the questions.

How low is your car going to be? For tires do you want a lot of stretch, a little stretch, or fit just right? How much camber do you want to run? How much body work do you want done to get the wheels and tires to fit?

Thanks guys.

Next mod will be coils and want to run it fairly low.

Negative camber - ideally want to run max negative 2.5

what sort of tyre widths would you recommend?

Serious work needed. It will be better for you just to find different wheels.

Shitty, ill-fitting wheels coupled with skinny, low performance tires just is NOT worth the few hundred dollars you're going to save by "getting a deal" on the wheels.
