So need 39 volunteers. They would make excellent Christmas, birthday, easter presents etc. Even if your friends and family don't have Elises you could get them just in case or they could double up as plant pots, lobster pots, ballast...

Compomotive will make you up a set of those and they will be a lot lighter
I had a set for my old smart (3 stud and different offsets front and back)

Thats changed days at Compomotive when I go the a set of Mo'S from them in 2010 they were happy to make small batches of wheel or drill even just set to suit
may still have the e-mail from the guy I spoke to there if you want me to get you a contact name

JJ had a set of compomotive MOs on his S1 Elise which are now on another members car so maybe they only make batches now.

Thought that was his exige, so in the larger diamaters?
The problem with Mos for S1s is the fronts and rears are a different design.

mixing my MLs with my MOs. MLs only go to 15" hence the hike in tooling costs.
