if you like it then do it. Give it a try no harm in that. I think the bolt patterns are the same but as for offset might be off.

old lady ***... you know, strange size that just doesn't seem to fit the woman.

seriously- your going to need some major spacers to make these look decent at all. what are they? 17X7's with offsets near 45 or 50? I would save my $$$ and get something that FITS

s2000 wheels have horrible offset. something around +60 or something like that, it will be worse than lexus oem rims. but if you like it go for it.

man you are getting crazy over nothing. You arent even the one who started this thread, why are you offended? My comment was to the thread starter and he seemed to be ok with what I said.
Also, if putting S2000 wheels is what you like and your preference, why let anothers' opinion get to you?

Stock S2000 specs:
Front: 16x6.5 with +55mm offset
Rear: 16x7.5 with +65mm offset

That would be a hell no for me. But it would be interesting to see how weird it will look.

nah im not getting crazy i was just curious what your opinion was. it just seems to me that your opinion is people should buy wheels to be different. that was taken out of context from what you said. i was just saying not everyones goal when buying wheels is "will i be the only one with them". its like the honda tech kids buying these super jdm wheels for like 2500, sure it makes them unique but so would buying those bear wheels. my whole argument was just that aftermarket wheels arent necessarily more stylish or better quality then oem wheels. maybe i came off defensive because i just got done arguing with my friend how his 16 inch advans with one curbed wheel is not worth more than my other friends 17 volk te37s.
