The invoice said 48 offset so im guessing thats all the way round? I havent checked with envyperformance yet.
A few days into driving the car with new wheels and the car does feel alot more stable with the slightly wider rear wheel.
One thing I managed to do when fitting the wheels was scratch the recessed part where the wheel nut goes, are there slimmer sockets that can be bought to avoid this? I tried 3 different tools and in the end just wrapped a socket in duct tape to prevent metal to metal scratching.

Thanks for the replies. I'll check out halfords sockets. I have an old RS electricians socket set somewhere with orange insulation. I'll see if some of these work but I think the outer insulation is too thick.
All in all I think they're great wheels for the

Correct.
There are almost no fitments for the S2000 with the correct offsets, so the handling will suffer.
Mugen or Volks are your choices. Lovely lightweight wheels, though.

How would these 16" wheels influence handling on a 04- model, compared to the standard 17" items?
