Thumbs up Please give me your input on these choices!

Please let me know your input on which one of these choices I should get. Or if you know a good brand that I can get for the same price throw that out there with a link. All help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Or these 17 inch ones which I would buy and paint gold:

The only thing that bothers me about these rims is that the front rims and the rear rims are both 8 inches wide. Is that alright for an S2000? It says they are staggard so I assume that the offset is different.

One last question.... Where would I get the wheelfire discount code?

none of those wheels are quality wheels... they are cheap... if you want something higher quality in your price range look at enkei RPF1s, they are very popular for a reason, and are not expensive. Otherwise you could always buy used

Look at tire rack, they will only show you wheels that will ACTUALLY fit. The Wheelfire site is only showing you wheels that will fit the s2000's bolt pattern, not offset. meaning the wheels will stick out past the fender.

I have tried VERY hard to find used. No luck up here in Central New York. I would love to buy used if I could.

Even AXIS rims are not good?

What is good or not good means? For daily? or for track? or drag?
quality?

How much is your budget?
It's all comes down to what you really like and what you are going to do with. I personally wouldn't rock Axis or TSW, just not my taste. I think stock rims are much better looks than any TSW or Axis wheels.

Some likes RPF1 style but some doesnt. But i tell you tho, nothing can't beat their price for their weight and size also i like 5zigen FN01R as well.

I searched craigslist every day looking for them and I always keep an eye on the classifieds on here. There are some nice rims for sale but its the shipping that kills me. Nobody owns s2000s where I live and the people that do, dont modify.

My budget is under $1500. I have stock AP1 rims right now and the tires need to be replaced so instead of spending $400 on new tires I just want to put that towards rims and tires for that more personal look.

I recently bought some OZ ultraleggeras from TireRack. Same price ballpark as you were looking in. I was able to score some almost new Eagle F1 tires on craigslist for $200, which helped out with keeping the overall cost down. The OZ's look great and needed no fender roll to accomodate my 225/40-18 and 255/35/18 tire setup. There is now somewhat less tire gap than stock and I feel no desire to have to drop the car with lowering springs. Jim at TireRack was a big help, give him a call.
