With that rear offset you will not be able to run wider tires so having a 8.5 rim is kind of worthless. I like the style and price but they do not make really S2000 friendly offsets.

actually i run a 255 in the rear and its fine, but you have 2 run atleast -2.75 camber in the rear. oh and my specs are 17x8 and 17x9 all with a +45 offset , obviosly with rolled fenders

Do a lot of guys actually run negative camber just to clear fender? What about tire wear?

the only people that run neg cam are the people that have aggressive offsets (like me) but you dont have 2 of u get the proper s2k fitment. oh yea and you will get more tire wear due 2 the added amount of of weight sitting more on the inside of the tire compared 2 being somewhat evenly distributed throughout the contact patch of the tire.
