So rears would not be issue for GP? Cause we got R56 rear suspension and bolts, right?
Yo Diablo you gotta ask this guy more questions or tell him to post some info on NAM...please, please, please!
Yes i will ask him to give his opinion on here, I think the rear on the GP would not be an issue. as they have the same brake system as the R56..right?
Yes rear is the same aluminium trailing arms on the GP and they have the same cone insert requirements as the R56 aluminium trailing arms, also same hub and bolt?
Just wish that car was in PA or CA so I can ask him if I could mount GP wheels to see if they clear.

I been trying to get a GP wheel for you to see, happens I had a GP in today so I took the picture..You going to need a 5mm spacer to clear otherwise is a go and they look stuffed!!! NICE
Looks awesome. Now if only they had drilled rear rotors to go with the fronts, I would have those on my 09 JCW in no time flat.
...IF you can get your hands on a set.
(GP wheels are not that easy to get your hands on... you pretty much have to buy internationally, because MINIUSA is super-uptight about it if you don't actually own a GP)
Yo thanks a million Diablo for info on GP wheels and BBK fittment and the pics. I will probably get those kinda expensive 7mm spacers from MINI Madness just to make sure it clears. Thank You again.

No problem, you can also go with H&R spacers...and black studs, not lug nuts!
Hello, I wanted to do the same brake upgrade you did. Are the rears installed yet? But also wanted to know what type of issues you ran into while installing both front and rears.
