Default OFFSETs??

How do you calculate wether or not a certain offset will fit our car??? Is there some magical mathmatical formula or is there just a cheat sheet out there that I dont have... Im going crazy looking at all these rims and guessing wether or not they will fit??

Anything you look at for the S2000 on www.tirerack.com will have already been screened to have an offset within acceptable limits for the car.
So if you're going to buy through them, don't worry about it.
Otherwise, you're going to have to ask, depending on what size wheel, its offset, and what size tires you want to run.

heffergm is right. It really depends on the width of the wheel and the tires you want to put on those wheels. There is a range of offsets that will work.
If I can help let me know
Thank you

Allow me to further echo that. It is really a huge waste of time to run all over the web, trying to find a wheel that may fit your joy when the work has already been done for you.

You're looking for an argument and you're not going to get one.

Good bye.
