I recently purchased my first Lotus and I'm possibly looking at changing the wheels. Does any one know the exact width of the S2 wheels? I dont want to measure incorrectly and I have 4 new pirelli tyres on them. So I kind of want to be a cheap skate and put the tyres on the new wheels I possibly buy.

The wheels you've chosen look nice, but have you checked the all-important offset?

Not a clue what the offset limits are for the S2.

I'm not sure what the 'limits' are either.
But the standard is 60mm.
