Thanks. More unsprung weight due to heavier tires and wheels, but I think the added mechanical grip trumps that. The RPF1s I used to have were super light. I did not weigh the CCWs, but I know they're very light as they are their Cosair series monoblock racing wheel. The tires are heavier of course vs. 17s".

I'm getting 30mm+ wider front fenders and asm rear over fenders, whats a good size wheel/tire and offset range I can run? I'm not dead set on anything specific Im just trying to figure out a range in wheel sizes I can go with to narrow down the wheel choice.

can you guys give me a range of sizes that would best fit with those extra fenders I can't figure out exactly what will and wont fit, too many options out there.

@willywill

for someone that doesn't own a s2000 anymore shouldn't be talking. Why are you still mad?

Lay off extreme lairs, flaker. stop

with me bro. stop hating. its a done deal. get over urself!

I dont see how me not owning a s2000 has anything to do with it, this is a public forum, and if you must know I will be back into a s2000 sometime early next year. You asked a question and said does semi meaty count? Lasted I checked this was a non stag/beefy tire thread, am I not right? and your -4 camber you have there you might as well went with a even smaller tire because your car has no function what so ever so you should of kept going with the trend, but I guess whatever floats your boat. do what you want it is your car. I have no hate towards you or your car. TBH I really like your car and looks super clean. I personaly just don't like the aggressive wheel setup with a bigger tire without the proper bodywork to make them fit correctly. so cheers mate.
