Not bad for LM reps. Any chance they'll be available in 17's?

As far as I know these will be the only sizes available unless there is a huge demand for the smaller 17" size.....


3 weeks and I get my set..... now I just have to decide on which tires I want to run

How is that considered S2000 fitment if you still gotta mod the fenders for clearance with proper tire sizes?

How can the 17x9 +45 Enkei RPF-1 be considered and S2k fitment and yet it is one of the most common wheels used on the S2000?

Have you not seen the offset thread ?

There seemed to be alot more interest in a size that was more aggresive than the OEM specs.....



I understand your question, but I personally don't think the car looks good with wheels that are sunken in.....


when my set arrives in a few weeks...I'll let you know how much work is needed.......

realistically with a 225/40/18 and 255/35/18 there will be minumum modification

^Some people don't mind rolling fenders, but still it doesn't mean it's considered s2k fitment.

Proper s2k fitment should strictly be classified as the ones that do not require fender modding. For example, the new 949racing rims.

I consider these an s2000 fitment because they will fit on an S2000 without much work.... especially considering the other sizes in this wheel line don't appeal to most of the S2000 market.... or just plain won't fit

Fitment, to me means bolt on. If you have to tinker or modify a part of the car to accept the mod - it doesn't fit. We can say "S2000 bolt pattern" but shouldn't say S2000 fitment.
