I've never been so inspired. Have been contemplating this tire and wheel setup on my S2K this June and this just solidified it. Literally down to the hardtop, this exactly. May the meaty tire god's protect this Gem.

Just making sure before I buy these from a friend tomorrow, all I would need to fit 17x9+45 all around wrapped in 255 tires is a fender roll, rear tab relocation, and a minor pull in the front right? Could I avoid pulling my fronts if I went with a 245 tire in the front?

(going to be lowered on BC coilovers going for flush fitment)

Thanks

^^idk about that man....I think you'd even have to do a slight flare...Or am I thinking you need a slight flare with 17x9.5 +35s wrapped in 255s. I may be wrong and getting my numbers mixed up.

Did some research for ya Kenny. If you did all of what you mentioned you should be fine running 255's all around with that setup. 245 might make it easier for you in the front.

Just got an s2k and 17x9 +45. What's better if there is as a daily...225/255 or 255 all around?

Thanks man, still a little confused though, so NO pull necessary both 255 and 245 tire in the front with this set up? I don't mind rolling my fenders, I would just really prefer to avoid pulling and flaring, and I don't want to go the 17x8 because I like the concavity.

From what I understand as a daily it doesn't really matter, 225/255 is more S2000 friendly but with 255 all around you can save money and rotate your tires. You will be fine with either way you go I'm sure. 255 all around will give you a more flush look, but as previously stated, I believe you need fender modifications to fit the 255 in the front, however, I'm not sure if you just need a roll or if you also need a roll and a pull
