Local guy is selling a mint set of RPF1's fronts are 17x8 +35 offset 215/45/17 and rears are 17x9.5 + 38 offset 245/40/17 with BF Goodrich g-Force T/A KDW front and back. He is much lower then me and has his front fenders stretched and the rears are slightly modded as well. I am not nearly as low but from the few locals I have asked I am getting mixed feelings on if they will fit or not without modification to my car at all and still be at a nice height. Thanks for your time and sorry if this comes off as kind of a noob question I'm still learning this S2000 stuff lol.

 

It depends what suspension are you running?
i would suggest you test fit the rims first regardless to make sure there not bent.
i never buy used wheels without testing fitting them first.
rpf1's are very common if your unsure about the fitment maybe get a set of
17x9 et45 all around looks better in my opinion

 

I would guess you're gonna need a fender roll front and back...maybe rear bumper tab relocation? Thats my guess because those are some pretty low offsets for the s2k.

 

If you don't get them, PM me his number, I'll buy them. I'm low and have a lot of modification to my fenders.

 

Those are pretty aggressive. More aggressive then most RPF owners run on there S2000's. You will need fender work unless you want 4x4 stance.

 

You'll need some fender work, but you can make it fit (obviously, since the other guy has a S2000 with the same wheels).

I know you said you weren't going to be as low as him...but really we can't gauge how low either car is without either a description (approx. height reduction) or pictures.

Either way, these seem good if you want a pretty agressive wheel fitment. This definately isn't the most agressive thing ever done...but it's not a "bolt on" type of deal either.

 

Thanks for the help, I think I am going to pass because I'd rather not mod the fenders since I never seem to stick to one car doing something like that I would regret when it came time to sell.

 

If you want to leave the fenders 100% stock, you're going to have to get something weak *** or leave the car raised up or use very small tires or something.

Even with a 17X9+45, you have to cut out or roll the rear fenders. I say roll or cut them out. If you're going to roll them, use a heat gun to make the paint pliable. Then just paint/undercoat where you folded it over or cut it.

You probably couldn't even tell I rolled my own fenders if I was to sell the car to you. Unless you looked real close. There's no real harm done.

 

So do you wanna PM me his contact info? Preferably email or something?

 

jim: roll the front & rear fenders... relocate the rear bumper bolt & trim the rear bumper

then you will fit it

i had my rear fenders rolled for $25/corner at a place around me, he did good work
