There are just two 17's available for the S2000 that fit. The Volk CE28n's and the Mugen MF10's. Otherwise you can have someone make custom one offs. Good luck!

There are quite a bit more 17" wheels available than two. I just purchased 17" ASA FR1s for mine. They are 17x9 rear and 17x8 front. The rear offset is something around 63 which is fine and the fronts are around a 57 I think, also fine. The rims are very high quality, 2 piece, light weight, forged, and they look great on an S2000.

im painting the factory color again, i just love that color.. i think the new light silver is nice but something about this darker greyish silver just does it for me. as for the wheels i like those mugen rims, spoons are nice but i just dont want them i had them for my civic. no one got back to me on the exhaust, i would like some opinions on that as well. anyone know where i might be able to get a deal on j's racing front lip? thanks for the replies

The best rims in 17" and one of the lightest are the Volk ce28n's
lighter than stock and very nice looking.
I think they're lighter thaN mUGEN AND MUCH CHEAPER
contact Evolution autosports they are having a groupbuy on that wheel
good prices
they also are having a groupbuy on exhausts
exhausts are hard to suggest cause you aren't saying what type of setup you want for your car

GO TO S2Ki.COM
yuou can get more info there

Sorry, I watched a guy shred a pair of rear tires at the track running ASA's. They are a killer deal and fine for the street but even with crazy negative camber you will rub and destroy at full compression.

I've auto Xed on mine twice now and I've had no problem at all with rubbing. What size tire was your friend running and were they plain street tires or were they victo racers or something? I'm currently on a set of Kg/mm DR21 and my camber is no where near extreme. I don't see how there could be any rubbing issues with the recommended 255 tire on the back.

Think0rz, If you want a set of rims to mount slicks or victoracers or something of the like then go ahead and spend big money on something else. For the street, the ASA FR1s are light weight, high quality, great looking, and inexpensive. I am VERY pleased with my purchase and I still have my stockers for stickies...
