S1 wheels will not fit an S2 Exige.
I'm sure there are however similar style wheels for the S2 exige.

argh yes.... not bad ,but not quite as nice as the rota slipstreams thou

...i know they are the wrong dia, for the exige but that would only mean a drop in ride height?? yes...or is the ET that far out, that i would need to fit large spacers.. dom?

AFAIK the hubs are different, so the wheel nut spacing is different. Maybe a question for the technical section...

You have to fit spacers on S2 wheels to get them to S1 offsets, so S1 offsets would be too deep for S2 hubs - so you'd need to machine the wheels.
Forget S1 wheels on an S2, can't be done.

They are really nice wheels though, I especially like Jen & Alan's old ones...
