Default buddy club p1 II

I was looking at the buddy club p1 II for my S. I asked the dealer if they had a offset that would fit an s2000 and they said "Yes, the 38mm offset will work fine." I was wondering if 38mm too small of an offset to work correctly on the S? I've read on the board that the smallest you should go is about mid-high 40's for the offset. Oh and I was thinking 18's or even 17's if the offset would work. Thanks.

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe 38 is too low. You can get away with it in the front if you're not too lowered; the spoon wheels run 35 in the front, but most people feel it's not a good offset for our car.

I am not sure how small you can go, but the recommended is 50+.

Buddyclub doesn't make a proper offset P.1 Racing 2 wheel for S2000 so by running offset 38, it should go on the front but you have to make sure what widthof the wheeland tire that you will run cuz you will end up rubbing. Also, BC doesn't have anything close for the rear for the S2000 so you better double check.

It looks like they have a 45 offset...but nothing that works for the rear.

The P1 QF has S2000 offset.
