Widest Tire on an S2000
The widest rear tires that I've seen on an S is 255. What is the widest tire or tire/wheel setup that the S is capable of without rubbing or modification of the fender. Besides from rolling the fenders? Is 275 or 285 even possible?

The thing is that right now I have OEM wheels that I know will accomodate 255's. I don't mind getting aftermarket wheels. My question is how wide can I go in the rear? 17x9, 17x10, 17x11? I want to be able to fit the widest tire in the rear without rubbing.

For autocross, I have SSR GT7 wheels, which are stock legal (meaning that they are the same widths, and almost the same offsets as stock AP2 wheels). I have 275/40-17 on the rear wheels, and 245/45-17 on the front wheels, with no rubbing. I have stock suspension, a Gendron front sway bar, and have not rolled my fenders.

Doesn't look like he has any body mods other than "rolled and beaten" fenders... Body looks fairly stock...as you can see in the pics he has
Btw you have to scroll down just a little to see who I'm referring to
