I've had them on my car for about two weeks now. No complaints. The S2000 expert at the racing shop that did my alignment commented that they were really nice.

This thread is pointless...... Why waste money on extended studs, & spacers for oem wheels. Also waisting the time to roll fenders, f**k up fenders and risking the quarter panels to buckle..It's not oem, it's not jdm, it looks good but why do it???? Just buy a good set of wheels and make the car look better instead of wasting effort on oem wheels...... It's not a civic or integra people....

ok ok back to topic ^^^^ anybody? 
And to s2kep3, I own four cars, from Italian to American-so I can surely afford a different set of wheels. With that said, I love the look of my V2s over any aftermarket wheel I have found yet. Spacers allow me larger brakes and the look I want. So why the hate?

I hardly think this is about money dude, wake up and some being so ignorant! 
Anyways back on topic, for OEM wheels the best "SAFE" fitment is 15mm spacers all around
anything more would require fender modifications. Unless you don't plan on lowering your car, then yes you could get away with 20 or 25mm spacers.But for most of us who lower our cars, you have to stick with 15mm or less. I just installed 15mm spacers on my front NSX wheels and 5mm spacers on my rear NSX wheels and the fitment is perfect. I will try to take pictures later this week.

I sort of cheated.. (:
Had custom rear 1/4's finished, Ap2v1's with 15mm spacer, I will be buying a 20mm spacer, i am running a perfect alignment remember, if I want a large amount of camber I can fit "2 spacers and make these fit, I already have done it, but no need, because I like functional.

Then I switched to 255 Yokohama ad07's, a much meatier tire. Then the rubbing started!! I had to trim down my bumper a LOT more.
Just an FYI for you guys. Every setup is different. Some will require more modifications than others.
