So what wheels will you be offering us RavSpec?

Hmm... I'm going to have to rethink my rim choice now. Looks like an 8" wide rim at +45 will be really tight up front.

Won't work. U will hit suspension in the front.

Will fit with the proper offset.

That should be no problem. A bit conservative in the rear though. Flush and slight poke in the front.

I don't care about it being flush. I definately don't want the wheel sticking past the bodywork.

I want more width in the wheel and want to ensure suspension clearance.

Appearance (as long as it's not "poking") does't enter the equation for me...

So much for wanting 17x9.5 all around. Guess we gotta wait and see how much extra clearance we get with aftermarket coilovers.

I was hoping 17x9.5+48 would it

17x9.5 +48 in the rear are fine. Front will be tricky. Most likely hitting the inside suspension.

BTW very few people are going to want a staggered setup on these cars IMO. It's fine that you are test fitting those options of course but you'd probably sell more if you focused on square setups instead

Ill suggest 17x8 front but use 17x9 on the rear. Way too much room in the rear. Should take advatage of that and run a wider rear for more grip. Unless u don't plan on any power upgrade, then 17x8 is all u need.

Really ? I would assume more staggered setup will be requested. Japan are all using staggered now.

There are so much more space in the rear fender, and I think they purposely design it that way for larger rear wheel. I got almost twice the back spacing space rear vs front.

This is typical on RWD car like the S2000. I think we can even fit a 11.0 width in the rear.
