I've used Pirelli P-Zeros (18s) and get about 8000 miles at the back. I am replacing the fronts (29,000) this Fall or Spring '08. I guess it depends upon how hard you push the car. I've never done the thing but managed to run the Zeros bald in less the 8000 miles...terrific tires, I think better than originals. Just for grins, next year I'm going with Goodyear F1s....

Geez Bill, with all the Time to Change threads, I am surprised there was no Time to Change the Car...........
Tell me about it. These cars cost a lot to maintian. When people post about S2000s having "Honda reliability" I just laugh.

I personally like the look of a bigger wheel on a car and I've
seen pictures of S's on the site that look SWEET with bigger wheels.

Plus, I am a fan of chrome wheels and my '05 doesn't have those.
I never really got into the whole "different wheel" craze. They all look good to me so I save money with what the car came with.

Rick has over a few sets of wheels we've seen along the way. S2K Billy had a real nice set of wheels.

Too expensive a mod for us. We'll stick with our $4.00 S2000 decal on the wind screen, and the inexpensive decals on the calipers.
