Holy moly... look nice on the red! I agreed +42 seems a little conservative as I'm thinkng about spacer too, not much may be 5mm, can't wait to see yours with spacer on!

I know for a Fact 18x10 +42 with 275s fit with Zero work. I bet you would not have a problem with the 285s with a +40 rim.

Maybe if you ask Real nice brilliantblackrx8 could check fitment in the front and back when his set comes in.

angeljoelv is running 275 +42s check it :https://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php...&postcount=375

Thanks for the help!

Do the fenders allow for more or less clearance on an S2 R3 compared to S1 models?

I wish I had waited until the sun went down a little more but I think the pics came out decent :) Hoss-05, did you notice the exhaust tips? Man those things were nasty, you need to ditch those finishers, they are a PIA to clean.

You mean these Finishers?

I agree, but i do think they look nice with the stock tips. It all looks great Scott!

J8635621 07-18-2011 09:58 AM

I'm so glad I don't have the stock tips anymore

Yes, those. The stock tips seem so tiny to me.

:lol: me too, but if you are going to have them, keeping them shiny makes a huge difference.

J8635621 07-18-2011 10:20 AM

I'm not sure if it's the darker color of my tips or the size of them, but they do not get dirty like those freaking stock ones.

Forgestar F14 17x10, data thread - S2KI Honda S2000 Forums

This guy's Forgestar F14's cracked and failed at the track.


As with all wheels, periodically check for cracks.

Ouch! Driver seemed pretty nonchalant about it. Read other car owners also seeing some cracks with their Forgestars. Wonder how widespread this issue is. Stay safe everyone!
