Two things:

1) I know I'm almost completely alone with this opinion, but VSXXs are one of my least favorite common wheels for an S2000. To me, that's the most generic looking wheel Work makes. It looks like a bad knockoff of some other wheel or like a wheel that was designed in 1985 (Could be for all I know). They're too feminine looking. I think it has something to do with a mesh design without a stepped lip. It just looks... dainty. That's personal preference though, some people drool over VSXXs.

2) That's really bad sizing. My guess would be that someone bought those to clear some sort of gargantuan big brake kit. Even though the fronts are more narrow, they're lower offset than the rears so you'll end up with front wheels that poke more than rears (A no-no for me), and the same lip/face front and rear. If those were sized 18x9 +40 and 18x8+40, they'd work better.
