Can anyone help me out, I’ve been offered a set of rims of the S2, Ideal for track days I’m thinking, but I’ve no idea if these will fit the Exige, knowing my luck they wont, any advise greatly appreciated.Dave

I believe they are very different sizes.For trackdays, you really want your Exige on Yoko A039 or A048 rubber to really get the best out of the car.Check here if you really want top track wheels - http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/Forum17/HTML/000068.html Ian [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/smile.gif[/image]

I normally do use A039, this is just chance to get a cheap set of rims to mount some of those A039’s with less than the road legal 1.5mm’s of tread that I’ve got sat around.Dave

The standard S2 Elise wheel (& tyre) sizes are: 5.5" x 16" (175/55R16) 7.5" x 17" (225/45R17)The Exige is: 7.0Jx16 (195/50ZR16) 8.5Jx17 (225/45ZR17)So they may fit (assuming holes and offsets are compatible) but I’m not so sure the tyres will!I’ve been looking to get a second set too, so if you find a good solution please let me know.Ian [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/smile.gif[/image]
