Default 16's on the s2000

has anyone run a 16" wheel on a s2000 with 40 series walls, i don't know any rims off hand that are 16x7.5 and 16x8, but with a skunk2 spring, that could look tighter and more compact, any thoughts ?

in a 16, you should run stock ap1 sizes of 245-45-16 and 205-55-16. 40 series tires will look like ***.

yes and no....

the S02 is a "225" but has a contact patch of a 245 so if u got a different tire other then teh S03 then you will be losing tire out back which does NOT make for a fun ride....

My boy Santos knows wassup. He knows where I was coming from

if you get a non S02 tire, you would technically need to run a 245-45 since the 225 S02 is equivalent to a majority of 245's out there. The s02 225 is oversized.

Some other tires you may run that are also "technically" equivalent to 245's, give or take a few are, but are 225's are, Azenis RT615's , Adavn Nevoa AD07's, Bridgestone REO1-R's etc etc.
