Hi,

I am going to purchase a set of Work Meister S2R wheels and I need some assistance deciding between two offsets.

For the fronts, the sizes/offsets that I am thinking about are:

17x7.5 +48
or
17x7.5 +59

For the rear, I am looking at:

17x9 +55
or
17x9+73

I appreciate any help that you all can provide.

Always get the higher offsets when working with an S2000 unless you are trying to clear a BBK.

That said, you could use the lower offsets with a 215/245 tire combo, or even 225/255 if you are feeling lucky. The higher offsets would let you use even wider tires than that.

Sweet!! Thank you so much bro!!! +59 and +73 it is!!!

After talking with the Work distributor in Costa Mesa, and an independent Work dealer, I wound up ordering 17x8 .51 front, 17x9 .63 rear, 225/255 Advan Neovo. Did I do the wrong thing?

i have 18x8's and 18x9's but my offset in the front is +51 amd the rear is +60. the offset is perfect! i can tuck the rears if i want easy and will only rub if you hit a large bump at over 40mph

Thanks guys, I appreeciate the feedback. I'm not car stupid but I have to admit that offset confuses me. I drive my car aggressively on Coast Highway 1 - when safe - and there are lots of dips & bumps. I specifically told these guys that I wanted a "real world" setup and that's what they recommended. Should I cancel order?

Are you referring to me? If so, then what ofset do you recommend? I will be riding on KW Variant 3 coilovers and dropping my ride a bit.
