Exige Wheels on an elise??

Post by Wacky Racer » Wed Mar 07, 2007 7:11 pm

Hi All,

Does anyone know if an S2 exige wheel setup will bolt straight on to a standard S2 rover engine elise, and has anyone had any experience of doing it? :?:

Fronts have the same offset and will go straight on.

It's good to see someone else with a car the same colour as mine. Those wheels look great, I just hope I can convince the girl friend there is a justified reason for getting a set :D

What worked on my mrs was lookin at some shiney black team dynamics wheels. - she hated those and ended up "persuading" me to get the exige ones!!

they TOTALLY transform the looks of the car. - i just can't overstate how much better it looks!

I paid £700 second hand for mine and sold my old six spokers for just under £400, so it really only cost £300 as i needed new rubber anyway!

Are you anywhere near glasgow?? - if you (or perhaps more importantly your girlfriend0 want to see a car the right colour with the black wheels you're most welcome. just drop me a line.
