Do you think the front offset is too low?

You will have to do some very aggressive front fender work to have the front wheels with 245s fit. The rears would fit with a good roll and relocate of bumper tab. Running negative camber (more than UK) would also help you fit them under a stock bodied S2000.

lol agreed but what BSerious isn't saying is how much work it'll take. You will most likely need to roll and pull your fenders + run some aggressive camber, and maybe use skinnier tires at least in the front (225?).

^I was thinking 225 up front as well. I love the non-staggered or close to non-staggered better but a 225 isn't going to stretch on a 8.5 wide and will make fitting the wheels much easier.
