rpf1's are perfect for the S2K, they should have just come stock from the factory lol.


Without a doubt. Lightweight, 17". That's how the S2000 should ROLL.

concave is (
convex is )
s2k's offsets are super convex usually, so many ppl have a concave fetish if you dont know already then it prob. doesnt apply to you.

Ok man, I know what concave vs convex is. Way to be a jackass.

What I didn't know is that apparently once you get to a 17x9, the spokes of the wheel become concave? I'd like to see a pic of a convex rpf1 next to a concave rpf1...

Are you saying the front on that one is convex, and the rear is concave?

edit...Do you guys mean concave as in the center of the wheel is set further back from the lip? I'm trying to figure WHAT exactly is concave here...
