will +30 offset fit right on a S

[tamay_s2k]

Hi guys, im interested in changing my rims to rota p45r 18" wheels.
Only problem is after researching...it appears to me that they do not have offsets over 30+ and i know that for s2000s 40+ or 45+ is the recommended offset.
I currently have +40 on my car and they seem to be almost inline with the guard.
can i please have some advice on how this would look? would they rub? would they stick out?
Pictures would be a treat if you guys have any on s2000s

im mainly also interested in the offset because i want the concave look aswell

thanks heaps

You could rock a +30, hell, you could rock a +10, LOL - but we need to know how wide is the Rota P45R with the +30 offset?

18x8.0 +30? Difficult, but would fit with some modification to fenders
18x7.5 +30 (essentially making it a +42 as its 1/2 an inch narrower) - would fit

i was thinking of 9.0 at the rear and 8.0 at the front
but they come 18x9.5 +30
when u say modification of guards, would that mean rolling them? or pumping them out

[ludecrs]

This is 17x9 +35, just to give you an idea (pre-camber LOL)

FAIL.
ok...now im scared
why do s2000s have such a crap offset ratio
its unfair :(
most rims you cant get concaved because they start that look at 35+ or something like that

[jooboo]

id def rock 18x9.5+30 :P....soon as i can find the right wheels im ditching my 17s in a similar offset for 18s :D

[lzybum]

im running 17x9 +44 fronts - with -1.6* camber and rolled guards
and 18 x 9.5 +38 rears - with 3.3* camber and rolled guards

so essentially u can run the ones ur after...all depends if u wanna get ur guards rolled and run heaps of camber..like me! =D

[tamay_s2k]

lmao
thanks guys =D
the first picture brad sent completely put me off.
mind posting your pictures with the camber
im really interested in how this would look

[lzybum]

oh and i forgot to add..that im also running stretched tyres to be able to make these widths and offsets work =) (225/45 and 235/40 respectively...its not that bad of a stretch imo =D )

if u dont like the stretched tyre...then its better off finding big width with high offset rims to properly run non-stretched tyres.

www.rimtuck.com is your friend..its mine :P

yea... that shouldn't fit without any major modifications to your guards....
Just think this may help. I am running 19X8.5 +45 all round with 225 tyres at the front and 245 tyres at the back... line up with the guard and no camber and never rub. Hope this may help

[Ching]

Hi guys! how about front 17x8 +35 rear 17x9 +38? Will they fit without modification to the guards? Cheers!!

[joek]

highly unlikely mate. maybe camber can help abit though.
