Im looking to buy a set of advan rgs in 18x7.5 +45 all around with tires.This is my first time buying wheels for my S and was wondering if i will be fine to run these.Any help is appreciated

 

I'm not sure I'd go that size in the rears.... but they should fit.

You shouldn't have any problems running that offset/width, but just make sure you roll your front fenders if you lower the car.... I don't think you will need to roll the rears.

 

Seems pretty small. Why 18x7.5 all around? atleast put a 18x8.5 in the rear. The S2000was designed w/ staggered wheel setup.

+45 will be fine just run a little more camber an stretch the tires just a tad.

 

s2kitt your crazy telling him to strech a tire on an 18x7.5 lol gonna be an s2 with 215's in the rear.no no..you can shop around an find correct fitment for cheap if your pockets aint deep.check jlb motorsports they have a good looking set of meister knockoffs that will not cost you much an fit nice with a bonus free lip

 

7.5 non stagger is small for the rear. you'll be running 225s/235s all the way around which really is pointless if you are looking for better performance. at the minimum i would have an 8 inch wheel in the back meaning you should go for a 8 - 8.5 all around. 45 offset is on the edge in terms of a good fit. i run a 48 offset 8 inch front wheel with 255 tire and for safety i did a very light roll but i also track the car.

 

Sorry I wasn't clear before I ment if they went w/ wider wheels in the rear.

My bad.

 

Just to clarify since I'm pretty new to S2k's, but you'd be comfortable with a 8 (F) 8.5 (R) and run 215 and 245's? Is .5" stagger setup "enough" or would you need to go for a full inch?

Love to hear some feedback.

 

heres a good guide

For the front:
Offsets lower than +43 are not recommended on the front because a very narrow tire would need to be used to avoid rubbing.
+43 to +47 offset: 205 tires, 6.5" - 7.5" wide wheel
+48 to +52 offset: 215 tires, 7.0" - 8.0" wide wheel
+53 to +57 offset: 225 tires, 7.0" - 8.0" wide wheel
+58 to +62 offset: 235 tires, 7.5" - 8.5" wide wheel
+63 or higher offset: 245 tires, 7.5" - 8.5" wide wheel

For the rear:
Offsets below 40 are not recommended for the rear because a tire narrower than the stock tire would need to be used to avoid rubbing.
+40 to +44 offset: 235 tires, 7.5" - 8.5" wide wheel
+45 to +49 offset: 245 tires, 7.5" - 9.0" wide wheel
+50 to +54 offset: 255 tires, 8.0" - 9.5" wide wheel
+55 to +59 offset: 265 tires, 8.5" - 9.5" wide wheel
+60 to +64 offset: 275 tires, 9.0" - 10.0" wide wheel
+65 or higher offset: 285 tires, 9.0" - 10.0" wide wheel
