NO!!!!!! YOU CAN'T CLOSE IT!!!! I NEED THIS THREAD!!!! Ubetit!!! COME BACK!!!!! 
That's right, I'm a retard. A 42 year old retard that very rarely takes anything seriously enough to get upset about.
I know for a fact that the oil will not ruin the tires. Now, if your S2000 is a garage sleeper and you only pull it out to wash and "dress" your tires, and your tires are the original oem tires from 1999, then you "might" begin to have a problem.

Kens_s2000, man..you're hilarious!
Regarding the "Enviromental" issues...
Driving your internal combustion cars isn't "Enviromentally friendly" either.
I don't think anything that's use to dress up tires are enviromentally friendly.
With an exception of maybe soap/water. But that won't be dressing, it's cleaning I suppose.

Personally, I think this suggestion (while appreciated) is a bad idea on several levels. As most have pointed out tire dressing really isn't that much money in the first place.

Thankz for the tip Kero.
I however don't like my tires shinny, I like them looking new and dark black. I use Prestones rain protection (I that's what it's called) It makes my tires just look like new black tires, not wet, no shinny, just dark black.
Pass it on.

I used to work for dealerships and they all used a thick silicone gel/spray. That stuff would stay on for 2-3 weeks, even through the car wash at the dealership.

Unreal. I'm not the expert on cleaning. But never heard of motor oil being used for tire dressing.
Why stop there? our soft tops are mix of fabric and vinyl! Pound that motor oil all over the top while you are at it.
I will stick with 303.
