Hi everyone, new S2000 owner here, just picked up a 2004 GPW and I've been struggling to find some decent good value wheels that are at least as wide as stock.

Everything I have found about the Nurburgring looks good to me. I am working with a friend that runs a Discount Tire here in Raleigh to see if the matte bronze will be available. Based on TSW's online inventory (very cool) there are no bronze available. So I may be trying to convince them to start a run.

Anyone else interested in Bronze 17x7.5 and 17x9 ? I'd like to try to convince TSW that they would sell a few sets ...

I ordered the mirror finish ones early this week because TSW is out of the matte gunmetals. I'm actually not sure when they'll be here but I'm gonna have a ton of OEM wheels I need to start getting rid of...

I confirmed they are 17lbs each. Installed them today.

I am glad I ordered them when I did! It isn't a matte black but more of matte grey.

No fender mods. I drove around the corner without rubbing but I won't know till I drive it a bit harder.

I hate to be needy, but what are the specs on the wheels and what suspension do you have?

Thanks
