Default What is the ultimate width and offset setup for a 17 inch wheel?

what do you think is the ultimate width and offset for a 17 inch for the s2000???

with the consideration of...

a. resonable amount of lip (deep dish)
b. light weight

i'm thinking of the following size...
1. 17x7.5 +52 front and 17x9.0 +63 (maybe this is the perfect size?)

2. 17x7.5 +52 front and 17x8.5 +59 (exact mugen size)

3. 17x7.5 +50 front and 17x9.0 +63(exact ce28n size)

I think that the ce28n or the ASA FR1/Shuk WR1 are about as perfect as perfect gets.

The ASA FR1 is a rim that is no longer produced by ASA (the brand name); it is now produced by Shuk under the model number WR1. Check the tire rack website for more info or search for ASA FR1 here. You'll find all the info you need.

What is the offset of the Shuk WR1? I searched Tire Rack's site and couldn't find it.
