I've been busy this whole weekend, but the wheels came in Saturday. I'm going to get the tires put on sometime today!

Surprised to see the x8 fronts there, trying to clear BBK?

I love them! I had them on my previous S2000 as well as my current S2000. They ride very smooth especially when you're pretty low. I really couldn't ask for more

Yeah I know, very surprising. These wheels will be my auto-x/track wheels so I wanted something that was functional to the max. Eventually I will look into a BBK or Spoon calipers, so the x8 was the best choice for me.

Got some stuff done today...I got the tires mounted onto the wheels and put the car on the ground for the first time since I've had it. Man that felt great

Here are some pics!

Yes I know the front is lower than the rear, thank you. After I get an alignment I will finish up on adjusting the suspension height

Also removed the side "S2000" emblems

Installed an Alpine radio from my Civic Si daily driver. Now the OEM S2000 radio is in the Si, and it's perfect because the Si dash lights up amber just like the S2000 radio.

I still have to get the Modifry harness to make use of the dash controls

Rpf1's look sick man, I'm really digging that set up for track wheels myself but will have to wait on it. Everything is coming together nicely, looking forward to more.

Can't ever go wrong with RPF1s. They are cheap, just about as light as Volks, and easily replaceable.
