I'd go with wheel 1. I love ap2's but they're still a stock wheel.

If you buy the real Work Emotion CR's instead of going with the replica Rotas, then I would say yes. But if you're going to stick with the replica Rotas, then AP2 V1 wheels.

Friends don't let friends buy Rotas.

Go with the AP2 wheels. Or stick with the stock AP1 wheels. I love them both.

Hi all,

sorry to jump on this thread....Im a newby

I really like these new wheels by Lenso.



i have looked at the offset threads but still confused, can anyone confirm if these will fit my 2004 AP1 or not? I guess the 17's are out due to low offset....Do u recon the 18's will fit? any ideas on wheel/tyre combo's?

http://www.autopartuk.com/index.php?...oduct&pid=8374
link shows the offsets

Cheers for any help!

Leesy....

Your going to need to roll and pull your fenders anyways even with the 18s so get the 17s it also depends how low you r. me personaly im sick of the red and black combo its getting way too played out.

AP2 Wheels for sure....
Price? Varies on wheel condition, tires and their condition and lastly, how desperate the seller is sometimes. Go search.

Rotas on an S2000? Rice to the max. Why would you even consider that?

1.) The wheels are replicas. That alone should make you run away from them.
2.) They're not as structurally sound or light as the real deal.
3.) They do NOT fit as well as the real deal.
4.) Faking the funk just makes you look like a total poser.
4.) They're not that much of a bargain.

Real work Emotion CR kais are available for around $1300 shipped in sizes that will fit like they should. The real ones also have small details that are left out on the knockoffs.

The fake *** Rotas that make you look like a punk are around...what? $900-$1000 shipped? So you save $400-500. Big F'ing deal. The car looks cheap with cheap wheels because they don't fit like they should.

Try www.nyxracing.com. They have a pretty good selection on Works. They have offset and color choices. I got my ADVANs from them and they were really cool to deal with.

The sportmaxxes are ugly sweatshop *** wheels as well. Do you own a 92 civic or a S2000?
