Hey all, sorry for crap pics, I got home late from work. However, I'm so happy with the result. Improves the car a million percent! Just need it lowered a bit now 
This is the car standard
Then I bought these 
17" OEM Honda S2000 wheels off the later models best bit are they are 7.5 and 8.5 inch wide so got some 245/40/17 tyres on the rear 
and now fitted (sorry dark pics are crap)...
Looks sooo much better in my opinion! I'm totally chuffed

Tyres turned up today while I was at work, I arranged a tyre fitter to come to my house out of hours...
Tyres were fitted at 7:45... I then had dinner, washed the car and it was already dark

Welcome to my world Hence i never bother with my car anymore. Can't be fucked spending my weekend cleaning it when come Monday it will be dirty again.
Like the Honda's though I'm actually considering one atm. Just can't justify spending the money when it's driven 55 miles a day, parked at Tesco most evenings while i grab some food from the cafe and then kit by balls outside our house.

Identical to mine, if not the same!
Must be the facelift (2004) ones, right?

I drive mine 80 miles a day and park it in a sainsburys carpark during work all day long (don't tell insurance).
