The fronts are the concern since you are lowered. Rears will fit fine. Do those wheel fit over a BBK? I feel like a lot of the S2000 spec wheels don't fit over BBK's. Your best bet is to ask the vendor about BBK fitment and you can always send the the template.
Thanks for your answer, I kind of forgot about this thread, life happen, anyways...
My question is, do I have any advantages to take 17x9et63 in the front in the hope of fitting a bbk (even spoon caliper), or do i just stick to the 7.5et45 is and pad that with spacers ?
Started a tire recommendation thread for oem sizes ... problem is that gave me time to think and now I'm considering going square...
Bone-stock '08; interested in (perhaps) 17x9 +63 wheels (TSW Interlagos) and 245 square for tires... if that is safe on stock suspension and stock ride height and completely unmolested fenders. Hoping that by going with 245 vs 255, it's doable without rubbing by maxing camber (within stock adjustment range). I know these wheels have been discussed ad nauseam, but generally in the context of going to 255s rather than the 245s I'm thinking about.
Hey guys, got your input and ordered these beauties from 2Forge UK. Thought I'd give some feedback after a while driving around with stock springs / shocks settings, no problems at all although rears are beyond flush with fenders.
Front: 17x8 +48 w 215s
Rear: 17x9 +53 w 245s
I'm still trying to find some wheels that will fit some bbk (spoon, trophy)
I've been proposed those setup
Volk CE28SL
17x7.5 ET48
17x9 ET63
or
Advan RZII
EDIT: I'm on ohlins coilover (droped around 1inch) and 2.2FR and 3R camber
17x8 ET45

You can run the 17x9.0 +63 SQUARED with Spoon Caliper and run the ST40 caliper with a 3mm spacer.
The CE28SL 17x7.5 +48 do not clear Spoon or ST40 at all.
Square setup is a bit of a pain (front sway bar and stuff) is the 17x8et45 RZII will be ok, how about the fender ?
I unfortunately dont have that brake fitment information. As for the the fenders if you run a smaller tire it could fit yes. But that offset is a bit lower for the front of the S2000.
