I'm looking at 17 inch:

Mugen MF10 (+59 offset)
or
Volk SE37K (+45 offset)

Will either of these work?

 

The MF10 is a really tight fit but somehow works.

ZERO chance the SE37K's will fit in that offset.

 

You can always roll your fenders and they will work. I have Spoon SW388s all around at a +35 front and +45 rear and tuck just fine(still minor rubbing in the front). For normal application Jerry Peterson is right the Mugens will fit (close) and there is no chance for the Volks.

 

I have 265 rear width tires in the Brigdgestone s02's. My rear offset is +73 mm and its cutting it close to fit.

 

Ccarnel:
What wheels have a 73mm offset? Are you "cutting it close" on the inside or outside of the fender well?

SpoonS2000:
Do you have 265's on your 16" SW388's?

JerryPeterson:
I believe the SE37 has more -offset then the SW388. You don't think they will work?

Do you guys have any pictures? I just picked up an S2 last night and I'm contemplating on the proper offset for a wide tire.

Sorry been covered up with exams lately. They are custom 3 pc kinesis wheels. The fit is close on the outside but they do not rub at all.

 

gotta love kinesis wheels

 

You asked:

But this was already posted:

FWIW.

 

To clarify, JerryPeterson's opinion is that 45 is not enough offset for a 265mm whereas SPOONS2000 says 45 offset works. I know it has to be borderline but I wanted to know if Jerry has had a bad experience with a 45offset/265mm tire on a S2000.-Thanks!
