Earlier in summer, swapped out and sold the 18" SSR GT3s for some rare 18" Weds Kranze ER-M wheels



For whatever reason, pictures don't pick up how nice these wheels look in person an S2000.

I've been sitting on some ASM stuff for this car. Car is headed back to the body shop for new bumper cover and lip, new fenders, and some sideskirts:

I also had a set of wider wheels sitting around, some 18" Work VS-XX. I swapped out the Weds Kranze ER-M's for the Works.

Not sure which ones I like better. The Works look a lot more aggressive, but the are pretty common. In either case, I'll end up keeping one of the sets, selling the other one. I'll end up needing to finish one or both sets....probably will do a satin black face with gloss black lip (and probably whole barrel). I really ended up liking the red/black combo while I had the SSR's....typically I don't care for black wheels though.

I liked the mf10's more but that's just my opinion. Looking forward to seeing teams aero on there.

Getting ready for a new look.....build 3.5 or build 4, not sure what this one is.


ASM bumper and lip



ASM fenders and hard to see, J's Racing sideskirts (hard to see in the pile)




Widened fenders

That fender work looks great! What wheel and tire size do you have? I had custom rear fenders done as well, though mine bulged out a bit more.

I don't have wheels and tires just yet. the VSxx that on there are 18x10 in the rear....not sure what offset; but also has 25mm spacer on it.

The bodyshop did a great job on the fender work, when the car is on its own, it's hard to see the work....they replicated all the OEM lines; it's not until the car is next to another s2000 that you see the added girth.

I had the body shop go considerably wider on my wife's car, here's a pic of a little less widening on my car:

I don't have a build thread for my other car just yet, but that one is out of the body shop and at the builder's. Here's some pics of her:
