hey there, was wonderin if any of you S2000 guys could help me out. i have a 2000 HX with a usdm itr 5-lug conversion. what i am wanting to do is use stock 04'-05' S2000 wheels (front ones only, rears i believe are too wide) on the car. any of you heard of or have any experience with this? any help/info greatly appreciated!

 

ITR's have had sucess with this, so I'm guessing you wouldn't have any issues, either.

Wouldn't you have better sucess in the Civic forum?

 

maybe. guys in wheel/tire directed me here. thanks for the info!

 

if you find 4 fronts, they will fit and work fine

 

thanks!

 

you should be good man

Just find 4 fronts and you should be straight.

The only Problem is that those wheels we'll be sunk all the way in the fender but other than that, at least you'll be running ap2 wheels

that and handle like an ****

 

I wouldn't see why it would drive like *** though?

He'll be running at least 2 more inches of contact patch to the ground.

Wouldn't it be exactly the same thing as a DC2-R running AP wheels since he's running teh same exact DC2-R 5 Lug on his EK?

Correct me if i am totally wrong.

...couldn't he simply run spacers to solve that issue if that were to be the case?

 

Oooh of course. By running spacers, you can easily solve the problem of the wheels being to sunk in.

The only problem of running certain spacers is that once he gets tired of running these ap2 wheels, and wants to be spontaneous by running another set of wheels, he is going to have to go through all the trouble to pull all the spacers out from the hub once again.

Either that, or save the trouble by keeping the spacers on, but will be limited to certain size, width, and wheel offsets beacuse of the extra " et mm" that he has put on.

and we all know, that honda offsets suck *** is.

BigFigMan. Just run the 7" fronts off an AP2. You should be straight man.
