5x114.3 and 55+ front and 65+ rear I believe somewhere near that......and rota's ey well different strokes for different folks.....hopefully you'll run the highest offset possible which is probably a 48+ with at least a staggered setup.....

Rotas do not fit. Don't put them on your S2000. If you can't afford a better wheel that fits, don't put aftermarket wheels on your car.

I think Rotas are good wheels. I would have them on my Civic or Miata. They just don't come in the right sizes and offsets for the S2000.

Unfortunately, most of the wheels that fit the S2000 are more expensive. I have CE28Ns on mine. It took me a while to justify spending the money on them but they fit perfectly and don't rub(1 1/2in drop), are very light weight and look fantastic. Work makes several wheels that fit correctly as does SSR.

Look into gramlights.... they are a very good quality wheel (rays engineering) and they can be had for an affordable price. tirerack now carries them...


rota

^^^^

any wheel can do that...looks like they hit something real hard. I've had several sets of rota's and I have had NO problems at all. However...I would not put them on any S2000...thats just asking to be smacked. Thats like putting American Racing wheels on an M3. Save your pennies and put on some better quality wheels.

How about American Racing wheels (ARE) on an S2000....is that forbidden? Ro_Ja's, to my knowledge, are made by ARE.

What makes you think that spacers are going to help Rotas fit? The offsets on all of the Rotas are too low as they are. Also, you can not get Rotas in the right stagger. Adding spacers are only going to help make the offsets lower. To make them fit, you would have to machine the wheel at the hub and that will make them weaker.

They are just a bad idea.

If you have an '04 you already have a nice set of wheels. If you can't afford a quality set don't disturb the harmony of the car as it sits with a wheel company that doesn't manufacture the correct sizes. Not to mention the fact that you will get flamed by just about every person alive that has a basic knowledge of modifying Hondas for putting Rotas or AREs on your S2000.
