Default 2" adapters

Going to order my S60 soon, and would like to narrow it a couple of inches for my drag setup. I just put new 18x10.5 C5's. Is it safe to run a 2" adapter for a street car that will be driven on the highway.

Same. I had my 9" narrowed 2.5" per side and ran an adapter until I had my new wheels ordered. Just be sure and run "adapters" and not spacers. Spacers refer to just longer studs and a plate to space the wheel out. I went with adapters that bolt to the hub like a wheel itself and then offset the new bolt pattern. That way, you can run a different pattern if need be but for our case, it'd be the same both patterns.

I've got my 2.5" set still if you would like to pick them up cheap. Just let me know.
