I think the S1 arches etc on the S2 give it a much more aggressive look and shows it means business. Gives an ace stance and with cossie wheels, the fact they are wider helps with this. I'd go for it too, as for the rivets however, you asked for opinions and i would give them a miss, looks a bit rough in my opinion...

Even with low low profile tyres?

Maybe diamond cut your standard wheels then, they would look brilliant like that

good decision.

if ur goin cossie style, get the cossie ones dont go use a mondie rim, you will regret it. they look pants!

16"s low profiles at -60mm should not be too difficult. you can always go for a slightly undersized tyre and stretch it on the rim, like the v dub boys do. in fact that grey s2 on this thread with the cossie rims had done just this. from the tread they look like yoko A379's? id say a 195 stretched on to the 205 cossie rim.
