Default 13 inch wheels

I want to put on 13 inch wheels and a 4 inch lowering kit so my baby hugs the ground!! would I have to do a brake conversion for that?? would CRX brakes fit on my S2000,I know that they are really good brakes!!

actually you'll get a much better setup if you go with drum brakes all 4 corners.
Then get some fake spinners from pep boys and your set.

I can't see that working on a S2k. Just lower the car and run lower profile tires.

I like the drum brake idea, do you know where I could find some to fit on my car??. then I could put the 13's on

if you get rid of the brakes all together you could fit even smaller wheels. and then get both an anchor and a parachute. the anchor would be your "quick stop" brake, and the parachute would be for a slower stop. but make sure that you attach them to the proper chassis points.

F*** the front brakes, and just install rear inboard disks like a Jag or Alfa...

Damn, I came in here expecting talk about 13 inch wide wheels in the rear. Not this kindergarten shit.
