Default Hiya

RIGHT!!!

Im from Bristol in a place called England. Always been in to VW's and im never leaving that scene as it is full of so many great people, but i no longer need a sensible car for everyday i fancy a change and im thinking S2000. If i get one i wanted to bring a few VW scene ideas to it, debadge, it smooth a few things off and drop it on some BBS RS. Then i saw the car below




I NEED to see more photos or find out more about it, help me out please please please.

You wouldnt fit in very well in the VW scene then, they are the wheel to have lol. Im just not sure how he got them on there or what the wheel specs are. I have seen them on a civic before but note sure if the were ever made in honda pcd or if they have been redrilled.

they make those in correct pcd, but the offset are often low(aka sticking out).

BBS basket looks great on vdub and honda but don't do the whole stupid **** stretch tire on 9.5 inch width thing on the s2000 and crash the car.

by the looks of thing, the bbs look pretty high offset or it's narrow, it looks close to 8.0-8.5 with 48+ et

Haha yeah us dub boys love our stretch. A guy i know just put a 215 45 onto a 10 inch wide rim lol. This is all just talk atm. I want to finnish the golf, im just looking to the future and expanding my horizons. Im guessing finding any honda fit RS's with a high enough ET is gonna be hard work.

volks makes 9.5 inch wheels with 70et if i remember it correctly

i have a 9 inch wide rear with 65/63 et, of course high et wheels are harder to come by then low et 5x114.3, but it's doable

don't blame him, there's already a good percentage of s2k driver around thinks slamming with 9.5 inch rims with 215 tire on 3.5 camber is the next coolest thing since sex.

OMG mono-block forged JDM wheels w super stickery tires on 3k JDM coilover that barely make it off a speedbump /omg

Thanks I found that myself a while back. Some hot cars in that thread. Most are running LM's which if im honest look better than RS's on S2K's but RS's have the retro/ euro vibe im after. I know no one gets why i want these wheels so much or understands my VW fetish but look on the bright side i have lived VW since i was 16 and S2000's have grabbed my attention.

I think the replica LM's you can get now have killed that wheel a bit. Awesome rims though.

Replicas have killed more than just the LM's. They've killed pretty much every wheel and every aftermarket part on the market. And it's a shame because the replica companies are doing well and thriving, while the real companies that do the real R&D and produce quality products are going under.
