Default DC2 Wheels on an S2K?

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone knows whether the 15" wheels from a 98 spec UKDM Integra Type R will fit on my UK AP2?
Worried about the offsets and brake clearance on the front?

Thanks in advance.

P.S. This is temporary, I'm just looking at getting my wheels refurbed and need something on the car while it gets done.

I dont think it would work. I believe the hub bore is going to affect the mounting. I say that because I own a USDM DC2 ITR and I had Mugen MF10's in DC2 specs, and when I tried test fitting them on my USDM S2000, the hub bore on the Mugens were too small to fit correctly on my s2000. As far as offset and clearance wise, it shouldnt have any problem since ITR wheels come standard with high offsets like S2000's to compensate for the bigger brakes. And I suppose if you really need to, maybe you could buy spacers to push out the wheels so the center bore wouldnt matter anymore. But that seems like it would be too much trouble anyhow

from what ive heard is the rears will fit and the front wont unless you run a small space. only one way to find out.

I tried some oem TL wheels and the front hub bore was to large so i ran a spacer

Can you state what spacers you used? I'm going to start a thread on 17x8 TL Wheels because I have an interest in running them/fitting to see what I can do with them.

Thanks for the help guys, guess the only way to be sure is to try and it and see what it's like. To be fair, so long as the fronts fit, I'm not worried about it rubbing on a hard lock. I just won't go full lock etc. It's only for a day or two to be fair.

Thanks again
