i was wondering if i were to run a 16" rim with a bolt pattern of 5 x 114.3 +40mm will they fit right and everything ?? tire rub or what.. cuz i know how touchy the S is with new rims......??????? also what size tire would u recc if that offset is right for the S2K??? thanks

 

negative...

 

whats the width? 40 offset is too small

 

ok once and for all...please someone explain offset to me

 

S2000 comes stock with 16*6.5 fronts with 55mm offsets...... backs are 16*7.5 w/ 65mm offsets..... the higher the offset, the more "inward" the wheel is

So you have to figure out the width difference (half the width diff goes to the inside and half to the outside), then figure out the offset difference. Make sense?

Spoons are - fronts - 16*7 - 45mm (or 35mm) and rears - 16*8 45mm

A 16*7.0 front with a 45mm offset would be 16mm out from stock.... (no rubbing there)

A 16*8 w/ 45mm offset would be 6.5mm (1/2 of the width difference) + 20mm (the offset difference) = 26.5 mm (about an inch) further out than stock wheels.... again, no rubbing there unless you really lower it.

ok so to sum things up.. if iam looking for a 16" rim for the s2k what am i looking for .. what dimensions ???? thanks

 

spoons are 16*7 w/ 45mm front and 16*8 rears with 45mm offsets.

volk ce28n's & TE37's are about the same width and offsets.

besides that you don't have much choices other than stock or JDM stock.

You can go get some shitty pep boys wheels that will fit, but they probably won't be staggard....and they will be heavy.

 

and also will rub

 

yea i see what you are saying..... iam looking for a blk rim with chrome lip... but dont want to spend 3g's alone on rims...... you guys know of anything that matches that criteria for the s2000 ? just shoot some ideas of rims out.. i really like the ssr1 professors i think there called ......

This applies to the AP1...not the AP2 (just thought i'd throw that in there).

Besides the 17's... what is the setup? And what are the stock AP2 offsets & widths?

The optimal offsets for the CE28 are 17x8.5(F) +50 and 17x9(R)+63.

 

he asked for 16" sizes........that is why i posted 16" sizes and offsets.
