Default TSW wheels

hey guys, im trying to order wheels and i wanted the 17" ASA AR1s from tirerack but the rears are on special order. im now considering getting wheels from www.discounttiredirect.com -
these are them

i would be getting 17X7 (225/45/17) and 17X8 (245/40/17) - those are the tire sizes available through this website. anyone have any information on these wheels or this website? i know the s2000 is a hard car to find wheels for, and this place seems to have a lot more wheels available for the S than tirerack does. i just dont want to get these and realize they stick out too far or something weird like that. anyone have any information? im looking to order wheels tomorrow.

im also considering these wheels - they are made by MB Wheels, i would get these in 17X7/17X8 with 225/245 tire combo.

which do you guys like more? i'm torn...

Just because the website lists those as options for the S2000 doesn't mean they'll fit.... trust me. Find out the offsets on both wheels before you purchase.

Sorry but unless you have wide fenders those are not going to fit. Maybe if you run a 205 tire up front if you have to have them. The rears can be rolled to make them work. Still going to have issues being lowered.
