Look pretty cool. Lots of spokage to clean, but with that color, you can't see the dirt as much. I'm a 5 spoke and 4 lug nut hole kind of guy, so those wouldn't work for me.

I'm a five spoke guy myself, even if you don't have bbk's slotted rotors with painted calipers (Spoon Calipers if you have the money) and five spokes make the s look hot. Soon as I get the money i'll be putting some Volk GTS 17's on mine.

I know for a FACT that the last year of production of the S2000 is 2003!!!!!
After that, it will be the S2200 under an assumed name.

Did anyone notice the lack'uv offset info?
Anybody wanna bet me that when you finally do acquire that li'l bid'a knowledge it's gonna be +38'r 40?
'Don't care how "cool" a wheel lookz. If it don't allow you'da drive the car without settin' some'a yer favorite lower partz fer impact everytime a bump appears on the big screen (Go ahead. Tell me that you don't cringe whenever Stewie takez a hit'n I'll be forced ta call ya a liar.) it doesn't belong on the car.
Check the offset.
Check the chart that let's you know whut works'n whut don't.

I agree. Love the 5 spokers. I think it's goes back to my childhood when I wanted Cragar S/S's on my little red wagon.

(Gotta tell ya Doc, I've never seen a wheel with 5 spokes and only 4 holes)

You nailed it on the offset question.
My Raze wheels were fine until I dropped my S with Eibachs. I had to get my quarters rolled and I still have an occasional surprise.

This was taken before the drop.
