Default Rota Circuit 10 17X7.5 +45

I would like to get these wheels due to the fact that I cannot buy the Mugen MF10's any more and always wanted a set. Rota finally came out with some wheels that I think will fit the S2000 but I am not certain.

Does anyone have these or know if it will fit? Thanks guys!

They will physically fit on the car. But they are not staggered and the offset is far from ideal.

By the way, there are plenty of Rota wheels with that similar width and offset. You don't see people using them much because they don't fit well. You really want something wider in the rear than the front on this car, unless perhaps you've put a big fat aftermarket sway bar on the front.

I was thinking the stock 205 and 225 - 245 will still work with these wheels??

The AP2 stockers are 215/45/17 and 245/40/17. The OEM 17" rear wheels are 8.5" wide. I don't think it would be the best idea to put the 245s on the rear. You could try a 205 and 225 combo if you can find a set that maintains close to the stock tread width stagger. But why go narrower than stock?

Nah, there are some pretty inexpensive options. Like the MB Motorsports Weapon!
