Thanks for the reply. What would the lowest oiffset possible be for the front of the car? Would the 17 x 7.5 +45 work in the front as well as the rear? Or would it look weird?

The Rota D2 in 17" won't clear the brakes. Perhaps the 18"s will but they're not in yet. Also the hyper black is not your common hyper black, it's on the darker, almost gunmetal color. So I went with Rota Torque's, hyper silver in 17x7.5 +48mm 225/45/17 front and 17x8 +48mm 245/40/17 rear with 73mm center bore. I got it from Discount Tire Direct, they did not mention if I needed hubcentric rings or anything.

Went to discount tire 2 weeks ago looking for some winter rims. Called Rota, they had a full set of slipstreams for the s2000 in stock. 16x7 and 16x8. Royal gunmetal with a polished lip. The lip is about 1 1/2 inches front and rear. Seems like everyone is waiting a long time. Maybe i was just lucky i waited 2 days..
