Default Tire sizes and offset on my s2000?????

hi guys I'm new here, but I just bought a 2002 s2k and its stock at the moment.

I bought a set of mb battles 18x8 wheels for it, with offset 43.
because of this offset can I get away with just rolling front and rear or do I have to pull aswell.
also can I do 215/35/18 and 235/30/18.

I bought buddy club n+ coil overs and plan on dropping it a good bit.

PLEASE CHIME IN WITH HELP!

the front might rub but the back should be ok without any modification. tire size should be 225/40/18, rear can run wider but if the wheels are not staggered then you might as well run square all around. either way this is not the ideal setup for a S2000

What would be an ideal set up for it and whats an aggressive fitment for it with the fenders cut

with fender work, you can go wild. lets just say without fender mods, example 18x8 18x9 staggered you will need HIGH 40's and up offset, this will get you somewhat flush already. more aggressive setup just work it out from those numbers.

most people would say if you want to run wider wheels you would need to either stretch the tires and run a low profile tire setup or get your fenders rolled for more clearance. i have had luck with roller my fender with an even metal cylinder. Something that is even from front to end. not a bat. bats are offsetted and its hard to roll your fenders completely with an uneven roller. You should use heat gun to heat up the inside of your fender walls, COLD ROLLING your fenders can lead with cracking your paint went rolling esp on the edges where your fender meet with the wheel liner. But yea alot of people get the special roller that bolts on to your wheel hub but i had same results with either.
