Default Help with fitment

hey guys i'm interested in buying these rims from a local Mr2 member. This is his post :

Rims are basically brand new

Volk Racing Gr.C 3 piece forged
bolt pattern: 5X100
5X114 with Rays Engineering Adaptor
Adaptor = 10mm thick
offset = 35-45mm front
= 25-35mm rear
Aluminum valvestems
incl. wheels, rays adaptors, lugnuts, rays locks, centercaps bolts to bolt on adaptor.

(please note: that these adaptors were designed as a part of the wheel and the wheel is hubcentric to them, the sticker on the wheel even says the bolt pattern is 5X114.3 so don't be held back by the fact that it has "spacers".. it's adaptors. These wheels don't come with 5X114.3 on the wheel.)

again basically new only used for this summer for about 2-3 months only occasionally driven


So bascially, i'm just wondering if these will fit on our s2000's lowered on kg/mm race springs? Will i experience rubbing issues? or would they stick out to much?

Thanks guys!

*sorry edit* forgot to mention width of rims. they are 16x7 front and 16x8 rear and obviously 16" rims. thx for all the help guys

There is no mention of wheel width in his info but they would have to be much more narrow than stock for that rear offset to work. So I'll go out on a limb here and say they pretty much won't fit.

Sorry

To fit tires of any width on the s2k the offsets have to be in the +50 or +55 range or the wheels will stick out of the fenders and look ridiculous.

Your car will look like a 4X4 "mudder", but being lowered, you'll be grinding off your wheel wells everytime you run over a dime.

You should concentrate on finding rims that were specifically designed for an S2000.
