Default WTB: high-end BLACK RIMS, staggered

Hi,

I prefer the "time attack" scheme Volks (flat black center with red stripe on edge of lip), if you have them (CE/RE/TE). But really any high-end rims would be good. If 2/3-piece, I can consider polished/chrome lips, but otherwise on 1-piece types I prefer all black.

I have LE28's (CE28 + polished lip) for trade if you would like:

But I can pay paypal or straight cash as well.

Again, must fit stock fenders on lowered car.

Thanks,
Dean

These are High End wheels.

You can fit these with adding camber alignment and a 245 tire. Remember, the s2000 doesn't need a camber correction kit, the camber/caster/toe can all be adjusted with an alignment since the suspension is fully adjustable on these cars.

yeah, i like those wheels, but you're kidding me right!? there's no way in hell those will fit without mods. and besides, 255's are a must for the rear. on my ce28's +50/+63 225/255's already barely clear the fenders, and my car is only lowered about 1". in fact, the plastic in one of the front wells is a little loose and even rubs on the tire when i am cornering hard.

anyway, thanks....... but i'll need at least +48 in front.

That is why you add camber silly. Apparently you have none right now, otherwise you would not have any rubbing issues with your current setup. 10mm is not that much, and if keep in mind, different brands of tires have wider or narrower contact patches so just because a tire is a xx 245 or xx255 tire, doesn't necessarily dictate that when it's stretched, that it will be as "wide" as the other.

People on here ALL DAY LONG said that my setup could NOT be done. And look how easy it was. it's all in the math.
