hey all.. was just wondering why i cant put s2000 wheels on my car?
ive been told i cant because the rear wheels are wider than the front..
what problems will this cause?.. =S

maybe cos they don't fit????

S2000 wheels have different offsets front and back (correct me if i'm wrong) with the civic (i assume u're talking about FD civic)...most likely u'll have wheels sticking out of ur guards

firtsly - what civic vti is your car ? Latest 2006+ ? Or earlier ?

Your car is 5 stud or 4 stud. Tell us.

Otherwise you cannot use S2000 rims on your car because they are "staged offset" (front wheels are less "deep" than rear)
and are illegal on any cars that do not have this stock.

it is illegal to have a staggerd offset on a fwd car as far as i am aware.

^^ got in before me and corrected me

yes i understand the s2000 have a different offset.. but im just curious whats the problem with the change in width for a fwd? how would that effect the ride of the car?
