using S2000 wheels as rollers
 
can ap2 s2000 wheels be used on the FD? I don't plan to drive on them, I just need something on the car to roll it around my garage for now. my concern is the offsets being too low and hitting suspension.

f: 17x7" +55mm r: 17x8.5" +65mm

I think they will work, I know S2000 guys routinely use FD wheels as track wheels. Stock FD wheels are 16x8 and a 50 offset if memory serves.

Probably not a lot of people have tried it, you may just have to give it a try and see what happens. The rears are the ones I would worry about.

I guess you could find another spare tire or something and put 2 S2000 wheels on the front and 2 spares on the back or something. Not pretty but makes it roll.

just a heads up, MY ap1 wheels did not fit over the center of the hubs on the FD back when I tried, im not sure if the ap2 centers are larger but the ap1s certainly did not fit

The S2000 hub bore is 70.1 and 64.1. I believe the FD is 67.1. so the rear S2000 wheels wouldnt fit over the hub, unless you use a spacer to alleviate that. Some S2K owners drill out rear wheels to run a wider square set.

I used ap1 wheels in the front when my old 19” wheels did not fit with the ings kit
