I really like the ssr gt1's that tire rack has but they are way to expensive for the budget right now so I found these to be the closest match possible. How do you think these would look on berlina black?

they look good, but i would just save up more and get the real deal. you spend on lot of money a nice car you might as well spend a lot of money on nice rims. if not and you don't care, they look just like the ssr's and i would get them

i think those rims look great on any color really. My only advice would be to try and get a close up picture on the wheel. You have to make sure that if you are still getting quality at a lower price. You don't want to be stuck with a wheel that is of poor quality. Hope that made a LITTLE sense, heh. Let us know when you get em and put em on...and of course pictures!

Make sure that you can get staggered wheel patterns with those wheels. If not, I wouldn't do it.

They come in three different sizes, 205/40/17 215/45/17 and 235/45/17.

if any, what combination works?

I don't know if they are going to fit right..... but they look more like SSR GT3's to me.... They'll look good if you can get the right sizes.

What are the wheel sizes and offsets?

You might want to post this in the Tire Rack wheel and tire forum. Lemme know if you want me to move it.

I don't know jack about buying wheels so here's the site. You can move the thread if you wish. I thought that forum was just for tire rack products.

Hmm...I'm not seeing widths and offsets. The S2000 requires a really positive offset. I'll move the thread in hopes that someone can provide a better answer.
