Offsets...

[Greg Stevens]

What are they for the S2000? Someone called me about them and I really wasn't sure...he was looking to buy some BBS wheels and wanted to know about what to look for...I know there are some wheel guru's out there. What does he need to know to make the right purchase?


Thank you, drive through please...

The stock wheels are front: 16x6.5 with +55mm offsets, rear: 16x7.5 with +65mm offsets. You can use a minimum of +50mm/+60mm with those widths. If you get a wider wheel, you can come down a little on the offsets. For example, 18x7.5 in the front should have +50mm offsets. If you get a wheel with too small of offsets, the tire will rub the inside of the fenders (the painted part) when you turn sharp.

Disclaimer: I learned this information from "another" site out there. I have no first hand experience with aftermarket wheels on the S yet, though I hope to soon.

When I had my Supelites built I copied the Mugen offsets for 17 x 7.5 and 17x8.5 which are 52 mm and 59 mm respectively.
