Default The best wheel size for the S2000

Some of you prefer to keep the car on the rim size it was designed for ie 16" or 17" depending on year, the some of us prefer to fill the arch with bling and go for 18" or 19"s.

I am going to order in a load of stock of 5zigen & Volks / Rays wheels.

I am considering mostly 17"s and a few 18"s but this poll may sway my thoughts.




Thanks

Lloyd

17" volks. If you make a nice group buy discount then you could have quite a few buyers (not me now though, although I would have lept at the opportunity 18 months ago).

17" Volks have been considered by me in the past. My main requirement for a wheel is OEM fitment, at least lighter than stock and doesn't look like shit.

theres nothing wrong with the standard 17" rims, so if your gonna change, why not go for some thing bigger! ive put 18s on mine and it looks sweet, each to theyre own though.
