Are you sure that's Arak? It looks like a urine sample after drinking Arak!

From the look on my face you can tell I'm not surprised by your comment.

47 and 52 respectively. These wheels have been made specifically for the S2000.

Have a look at this photo

AusS2000,

17x7 with +47mm offset
17x8 with +52mm offset

Not too bad...those are decent specifications.

I'm about to go for a drive in a National Park. Hilly bumpy windy roads, so a good test for the new wheels. I won't be pushing it too hard though as I've got to run in my new short block.

Well I'm back.

Added another 100km to my break in period. Only 860Km to go.

I'm happy to report that the tyres don't scuff at all. The roads through Akuna Bay are very twisty, but also very bumpy. Suspension got a real workout. I even scuffed my front bar once on a fast left turn with a dip in it, but the tyres never hit the arches.

We have lift off!

Some how I have manage to screw up my previous reply. These wheels turned out looking great on the silver Stook. Wayne, what brand of tyres are you using, have you noticed any difference from the stock wheel/tyres?
Are you organizing a GB, can you ship to Canada?

BTW, to all you trainees, undiluted ARAK is like the Greek OZO, less sweet.

Cheers,

Mike
