RL1924 · 07-16-2008, 02:31 PM

I have been looking at these on ebay, just a few questions didnt know if anyone had any issues with them and 2 they should fit right? Im new to the whole wheel fitment thing but ive been reading up and if i put a
205 Tire in the front

245 or 255 in the back i should be ok without any rolling right? Also that a decent price on ebay or can i get that anywhere? Thanks guys

you might want to go to s2katlanta.com and ask around, or do a search on their forum. there have been some posts of pictures of rotas that have failed, and commentary.

Dont know if this will help...

Based on successes and failures from many S2000 owners, we can use an offset calculator to figure out what other offsets and tires will work. These are minimum recommended offsets. You can use a higher offset if you want, and you will get additional fender clearance.

For the front:
6.5” to 7.5” wide wheel: 205 tires: +43 offset minimum
7.0” to 8.0” wide wheel: 215 tires: +48 offset minimum
7.0” to 8.0” wide wheel: 225 tires: +53 offset minimum
7.5” to 8.5” wide wheel: 235 tires: +58 offset minimum
7.5” to 8.5” wide wheel: 245 tires: +63 offset minimum

For the rear:
7.5” to 8.5” wide wheel: 235 tires: +40 offset minimum
7.5” to 9.0” wide wheel: 245 tires: +45 offset minimum
8.0” to 9.5” wide wheel: 255 tires: +50 offset minimum
8.5” to 9.5” wide wheel: 265 tires: +55 offset minimum
9.0” to 10.0” wide wheel: 275 tires: +60 offset minimum
9.0” to 10.0” wide wheel: 285 tires: +65 offset minimum

The offsets above will all set the outside edge of the tire to the same place relative to the outer fender, rounding to the nearest millimeter
