i think 18" spoon rims with a 45 offset might do it.

I think Ben from A+J said only +38 offset will clear due to the spoke design of the Spoons

Incorrect, Spoon designed the +38mm offset for the front of S2000s.

The 16x7 +45mm offset will clear Spoon calipers.

No need to call Ben.

16x7 +45mm Spoon wheels will fit an ITR with Spoon calipers.

There is no debate.

Yes, Reid is correct I have 16x7" spoon wheels on my ITR with spoon calipers and IT DEFINITELY FITs with no problems! If you'd like I can take pictures to prove it to you...(Props to spoon engineering, these things are a TIGHT fit if you do have the 45 offset wheels)...hope this helps!

The 16x7 +45mm offset will clear Spoon calipers.
16" is a 7" wide wheel
15" is a 6.5" wide wheel

16" will obviously clear the caliper since its wider and also since it has +45 offset

15" is a different story

Why are you listing wheel widths?

That has nothing to do with fitment.

the 7" wide wheel will accomodate more space inside than the 6.5" wide wheel?

go to any search engine and type in wheel offset, this will do wonders for you trust me! And like Reid says and MIKE M the combination that the original post creator asked about WORKS WITHOUT A DOUBT and there is NO DEBATE ON this!!

No.

Width has absolutely NOTHING to do with caliper clearance.

Width really wouldn't? Offset is measured from the center of the wheel so I assume two wheels which have the same offset but 1" more width on one of them would have a 1/2 inch more room from caliper to spoke.
