Of course they will fit. Any fits with the right amount of money and force. lol

You would need to get some spacers that go from 5x130 bolt pattern to whatever bmw uses.

They won't fit your S2. The BMW wheels are 20mm offset and late 944 are about 52-55mm offset, so the BMW wheels would stick out over an inch. 5x120 to 5x130 spacers would only make this worse (if you can find some).

Those look nice, just need lower profile tires. Tirerack.com sells 2 piece BBS wheels that fit the 944.

The only thing that confuses me is why they are made in Japan ?

This seems like a steal, if I could get them to fit

Let me add that Ebay taking the buying negative feedback out of the equation is BS, if you don't pay for things you buy that makes you a dishonest person...my guess is there is something wrong with one of these wheels. He has also sold a pair of these wheels and tires...FAKES

How much do you want to spend? I have a set of 3pc Gold BBS RM's I may part with. No caps though.
