Default Will 17x9.5 +15 work?

Hi I'm trying to buy a pair of mb battles off a friend they are 17x9.5 with a +15 offset they were on a rsx was slammed. My s2000 as of now has stock suspension but I may upgrade soon. Either way I'm sorta tire stumped.

Will they fit and with what tires in front and rear? Thanks in advance

They don't fit. But if you chop up the car, slap on some 205's, and spend some $$$, you can make anything fit.

No way in hell.

Please read more. You need to be in the +40's unless you want to spend a lot of time dealing with your fenders. Also overly aggressive wheels look really stupid on stock suspension. Invest in some coilovers first, then rolls your fenders and then look at wheels.
