Project S2000: New Wheels and Tires Installed!

[@mickeyhartsell6096]

Those wheels look awesome on your black S2000, cool stuff 😎

[@jonyrho]

Thank you!

[@HamHavoc]

Thanks for the video. I have mine that I need to mount and put the stickers on. I plan to do a ceramic coating after installing the stickers so hopefully that will help with the stickers staying in place.

[@jonyrho]

That's the process I followed too but it unfortunately didn't help my stickers at all lol

[@HamHavoc]

@@jonyrho man. That’s is not good to hear lol

[@Laporaunida]

Nice set up bro looks badass

[@jonyrho]

Thank you!

[@quest8795]

Such cool rims. Imo they look better without stickers anyway. Plus I love the coloured wheel nuts, I have similar on mine 😎

[@jonyrho]

Yeah I might strip them off. They did look pretty good clean

[@marloon88]

The regas look great 👍👍

[@jonyrho]

Thanks man!

[@AlexisMartinez-ln8xf]

Fkn beautiful

[@jonyrho]

Thank you!

[@brunostiglitz7535]

Love the wheels, I have the same in white. Did you have to deal with re tightening the torque in the lug nuts for a few days ? The lugs don’t hold if under torqued. ?

[@jonyrho]

I typically will do a retorque after 100kms of driving but typically don't have any issues with the lugs backing off. What lug nuts are you using?

[@brunostiglitz7535]

@@jonyrho not sure what they’re called but they’re some pretty strong forged steel lug nuts with the special multi hex key

[@jonyrho]

Maybe to a quick clean off the lug nut there and the studs to get off any potential oil or lubricant

[@VerangaF430]

You could put a layer of ceramic coat over the stickers!

[@jonyrho]

I did actually but there's been a lot of people saying sticker quality from ICB Motorsports to be pretty poor. Probably will go with a set of stickers from a reputable source if I decide to get another

[@VerangaF430]

@@jonyrho I got the original stickers from Desmond itself from Japan. Hopefully they are ok. I've got told not to do pressure washing for a while!

[@aaguirre123]

Very nice. What cambers specs you running, front and rear?

[@jonyrho]

Thank you! Off the top of my head I think I'm running -3.5 in the front and -2.0 in the rear

[@rockyk1395]

Clean build bro. Plan on getting squared setup 17x8.5+43. What size tires would you recommend? Beside bumper tabs should i get rolled fenders? Dont know how or who will do it. My s2k is on koni yellow and skunk2 adjustable and ap1 wheels at the moment.

[@jonyrho]

Thanks man! I'd probably go 245/40/17 for your set up. You'll definitely need to roll your fenders to prevent any rubbing. Rolling isn't too hard and just requires, a fender roller, heat gun and time. I would recommend watching tutorial videos and you might be able to find someone renting a roller out. I found myself rolling fenders quite a bit so I bought my own

[@echowhiskey17]

I didn't get stickers with my TE37... or someone stole them, but now, I'm kind of glad that I didn't. Those are huge! Looks great! No wonder they seem so popular with the S2000 crowd. So big. That NSX, though!

[@jonyrho]

Stickerless is definitely cleaner for sure. Yeah I was kind of shocked how big they look haha. That's an upcoming video 🤫

[@1nvd]

My dream wheels other than TE’s or Mugen*

[@jonyrho]

They're more attainable than you might expect! I was surprised they were cheaper than TE37 sagas lol

[@miketrix581]

What did you wash the wheels with to strip the stickers like that? I'm thinking of getting a set but had no idea the stickers were such bad quality considering they're +$52 on top of the rims. Did you contact ICB for a replacement?

[@jonyrho]

Just my usual pressure washer with a spray head that limits pressure. I've used it before on plenty of other wheels and cars without any issues. The stickers are a joke and it's a common issue that pops up with the ICB Evo IIs. I didn't bother contacting them as they were a pain to deal with in the first place for the shop I ordered my wheels from and most people go with aftermarket replacements instead. I was just going to run them bare instead

[@Rasec1120]

Berlina Black is the best if you have a garage lol.

[@jonyrho]

And if you never drive it haha. Looks good for the first 5 seconds after a wash

[@Rasec1120]

@@jonyrho Dude, tell me about it. My driveway is right next to my neighbors and they have a dirt driveway. I wash and enjoy it for 5 mins before it’s covered in dust again lol.

[@jonyrho]

Yeah my garage is onto an unpaved alleyway. I literally get my car dusty the moment I leave the garage :(

[@derekb370z]

Side skirts?

[@jonyrho]

Voltex street in carbon fiber

[@darkknight097]

What wing is that?

[@jonyrho]

ASM GT05C

[@SuperBullyone]

the old rims look more expensive. the new rims remind me of Ferrari 5 star rims from the 1980's and 1990's

[@jonyrho]

To each their own!

[@henrickcamacho4543]

thats one ugly side skirt bruh

[@jonyrho]

To each their own. It's a popular option in the S2000 community

[@No_life_haha]

Want some regas too but not willing to modify my s2k 😞😓😩😤😡😠😞😓

[@jonyrho]

Life's too short for a stock car ;). I know most people only want to do completely reversible modifications. A set of S2000 spec wheels in 17x7.5 and 17x9 stagger would work without having to do any fender modifications if you wanted to change it up
