I put the larger aftermarket ones on my S2. Still rattled a bit, but that may be because you have to spend a bit more time to set them up properly than I gave it. But a more satisfying "clunk" when closing the door.
So I have a set of S2 pins spare if you want to give them a try.

I put insulation tape on my S2 pins... seems to have stopped the rattle for now.

It'll stop it till the tape wears through, then you need to add more new tape

I'd strongly recommend the after market oversized pins available off ebay, they have a wider head section and aren't just oversized off the shelve things.
Expensive but my doors are totally rattle free, also close with a very satisfying clunk and have perfect shutlines (something which is hard if impossible to get adjusting the standard.

this was who I used a while ago but don't think there's any available.
They were tying to organise a group buy of these on Pistonheads a few weeks back - might be worth try there?
Could always take measurements from my pins and machine your own!
