16x7 +48mm offset 215/55/16 front
16x8 +49mm offset 245/50/16 rear

do you think those wheel sizes will fit S2000 ?
if it is the tire that doesn't sound right, what size of tire you think is better for S2000 with that offset...!!



this is the CE28N in 16 inch...!!

I think you wanna go with 205/55/16 front, to keep the ratio between the front and the rear like the stock S-02. Also, 245/45/16 rear.

I run these wheels on the track. IMO, i think they are one of the best wheels available for the S. At 11 pounds a piece, you cant go wrong...

I am currently running the stock S02s because they so far have held up very very well. The car feel s incredibley nuetral and inspires much confidence as i m just really begining to learn how to drive this car.

There is no way in hell you will ever rub with these wheels. Even if you put the largest tire you can fit on the rear you will never rub even if lower it.

For sizes of your tires, i guess it really depends on your driving style. i would stick with teh 205s in front and either put 225s in the rear or 245s depending on how well you can control the rear. Personally, i really like the 205 225 combo best. I realize that the stock 225s area little wider, but most R comppunds in the same size are similiar.

Hope that helps

BTW, i believe i still am the only one on the board with these wheels.
