No pics today, but Just finished at my local perf shop. I'm changing out the stock wheels and tires for custom built Niche Circuit 18x8 4 lug with Yokohama Ad08's 225/40. Can't wait till they come in.

This is my wife's 2010 Horizon Blue R56 with JCW 18" R113 wheels and Pirelli 205/40R-18 run-flats. We special ordered it for her retirement gift to herself in May 2010.

I would really like to have one of my own, unfortunately with my hobby, I need the space my Hummer provides. My future plan for her Mini is to add a M7 Tuning CF splitter and the tow rings. That will get done in March or April.

For now I am going to use NM Engineering springs, but hope to upgrade to KW coilovers later down the road.
