Hi, I've been getting mixed answers on fitment of these wheels. Can someone give me a definate answer, the info posted on the site says:

SIZES AVAILABLE:

16 x 8.0 +48 4h/5h x 100/114.3

16 x 7.0 +40/+45/+48 4h/5h x 100/114.3

16 x 6.5 +40/+45 4h/5h x 100/114.3

15 x 7.0 +35/+40 4h/5h x 100/114.3

15 x 6.5 +40/+45 4h/5h x 100/114.3

16 x 8.0 +20 4 x 100

Can someone tellme which of these sizes/offsets will work? Or if you have these rims please let me know about them or post photos even better. Any help really appreciated - thanks, Sean

I have 16x7 +40 front and 16x8 +48 rear. If you want these wheels I will have another set available in a few days. There were only 8 of the 16x8s brought to the states.....

I do want a pair however I'm getting mixed responses on the correct size and offset for the s2000. Rota themselves said to get it in:

16" 16x7 5x114.3 et 45 ( Front)
16x8 5x114.3 et 48 ( Rear)

and another rim dealer told me the same but they said to get 48 offset for front and rear while Rota said to use a 45 offset in the front. So, I'm trying to figure out who's right??? Let me know if you have any additional info or PM me, thanks

The higher offset is going to be better unless you are trying to clear a BBK.

Like spa-zz said, the higher the offset the better. I personally ordered a set a very long time ago and just got them in this week. My sizes are:

16x7 +45 front
16x8 +48 rear -- I guess I'm 1 of 8 now

Should be getting them put on in about a week or so. Obviously, these are not the best in offsets for the s2000, but they should fit decently. I also do not have my car lowered or have a bbk.

This is the correct fitment.
