Honda S2000 (AP) Tire Sizes & Rim Specifications by Year and Trim

The Honda S2000 (AP) is known for its precise engineering and performance-oriented design. Tire sizes vary across model years and trims, reflecting subtle adjustments in handling and design focus. Typically, early AP1 models (1999-2003) use 205/50ZR16 tires in front and 225/45ZR16 at the rear, fitted on rims approximately 7×16 inches in width and diameter respectively.\n\nWith the AP2 update from 2004 to 2009, tire sizing shifted, often utilizing wider tires such as 215/45ZR17 front and 245/40ZR17 rear, mounted on 7.5×17 front rims and 8×17 rear rims. These changes complement chassis tuning to improve cornering and grip. Comparing trims mainly involves noting tire width and rim diameters, as these affect rolling diameter and vehicle dynamics.\n\nWhen selecting tires or wheels, confirm OEM specifications to ensure compatibility. Understanding rim width × diameter references helps match tires that maintain accurate speedometer readings and preserve handling characteristics. This practical guidance helps owners upgrade or replace tires fitting for their particular Honda S2000 (AP) model year and trim.\n\nFor practical fitment, always check sidewall markings for tire width, aspect ratio, and speed rating. The OEM sizing offers a reliable baseline, but enthusiasts may explore slight variations within recommended ranges to tailor performance or aesthetics carefully.
