Ultraleggeras - 17", what offsets?
Where do i start...right - I am just about to have my Spoon springs fitted on my AP1 within the next week and need to sort out the sizes for the OZ Ultraleggeras i am about to purchase! I have studied the wheel fittment guide and tbh i think i follow it but want to run the scenario past everyone here before i splash the cash.
I am struggling to get much response from the UK forum so here goes...
1. Firstly am i right that the PCD is 114.3mm (x 5 stud) and am i likely to get ultraleggeras in this pattern?
2. Offsets... using the calculator the following sizes seem to look best:
Front: 17" x 7.0" +55, 215 tyre
Rear: 17" x 8.5" +65, 245 tyre ...and then i realised they were the same as
the stock OEM 17" wheels!
I cant seem to find anything on the net that tells me what sizes OZ can supply in this wheel. Does anyone know the closest configuration OZ do to match the sizes above and would you agree these are the optimum sizes to use to give good performace and looks?
A very quick photoshop of how i think it will look (wheels in matte graphite though
)

I have been recommended the following sizes and offsets on the UK forum (all based on 17" wheels - my preferred choice) 7x17 et45 front and 8x17 et48 rear, however when i put these into the calculator i get the following:

Surely an extension of 16mm and 23mm, front and rear respectively is too much? I looked at my standard 16s last night and they seem to be pretty much, bar a few mm, level with the outer arch. Im confused...can anyone recommend the best 17" Ultraleggera size combo for my S2k???
Many thanks in advance....

couple of problems, I don't htink they make them in 17" (although I could completely be off on that), and I don't think they make them in that finish anymore
. And your photoshop has it looking more like dubs. 
soryr to rain on your parade, maybe it's different story in UK
