aggressive wheel fitment and setup for 2nd gen?

What's up guys. I'm a previous s2000 owner and just got into a 2nd gen tsx. Not that it matters, but the car is new so I don't think i'll be whoring the new whip with mods just yet. Plus, I'm loving the comfort difference and ride height from the s2000 to the 2nd gen tsx.

I'm just browsing around to get some ideas of aggressive wheel/size/offsets for my 2nd gen in the later future. I noticed that there's not much of a variety just yet, since the car is still new. Just planning ahead for a better looking tsx, rather than just buying some jankie wheels that make the car look less classy, or adding unnecessary mods that do not help or increase the value,look, or horsepower of the vehicle.

I'm basically trying to go for that aggressive stance with a little vip look.

Plans for the tsx:
50% Tint, Full OEM lip kit (F/R/S), OEM moonroof and window visors, OEM front and rear splash guards, BC COILS, Full Debadge, Choice of wheels, and so forth.

My main concern:
I already have a good idea of what wheel to get, but what are some possible wheel/size/offsert setups for the 2nd gen? How wide can we go? Got pics or advice, post 'em here. Thanks guys!

that gives me a better idea on what i'm capable of doing. i'm now leaning towards 17 or 18x10.5 of my personal wheel choice with a mean drop.

But overall nice nice! that's what i'm talking about. thank you for sharing.

Keep 'em coming guys.

Would our cars be able to go for 10.5? :o Or does it depends on our rims also? Cause I was planning on going 18" or 19" rims and I also want the 'aggressive' wheel setup.

depends on rims and it's offset. 10.5 is possible. i've seen s2000's running on ccw classics 18x10.5 F 18x11.5 R. Our cars are big bodies so it should work, but of course, fender roll, fender flare, dropped on coils/bags and camber is a must to pull off the look that everyone is looking for.

This is something I think only you would appreciate. Foam sculpted front lip and currently fiberglassing.
