I have been told that If there is a few people interested (including myself) we could bring back the 17x9.5 +42 w/ GTR (concave) face, which would be less aggressive to the fenders then the 17x9.5 +35 or 17x10 +45 but offer the same look... This would have to be done through one vendor, and I am thinking about pulling trigger.

After several years of waiting and buying every other car but an S2K, I finally picked up a 2001 Silverstone/Black last week. NFR_AP2 has been kind enough to tell me what he had to do to get those wheels to fit. I am leaning towards a set of 17" bronze CE28N's for my S2K but I'm not sure what width and offset to go with. I see some of you are running a 17X10 +45 all the way around. Would that require a simple fender roll to make them fit? Would a 17X9 +45 be more of a friendly offset? I love that aggressive, concave look!

To get concave in a 17 you're going to have to go 9.5 +35 or 10 +45. You already know NFR's setup so I'll speak about the 10 +45, with a 255, it really wouldn't be that bad, you'd want to roll flat with a ~5mm pull in the rear, and in the front you'd probably want a pretty good roll with a flare or stretch a 245.
Either NFR's or this setup really wouldn't be that bad, but if you want the functional but aggressive look be prepared for work. You WILL have to play around with what works for your setup, especially since tires run differently depending on which ones they are.
