My car is incoming and I'm trying to decide between BBS RG-F's (16") or RG-R's (17"). The RG-F is less expensive and a LOT lighter (only 12.8 lbs vs 17-something on the RG-R). But I'm concerned that the 16's will look small and not fill out the wheel wells to my satisfaction. I've found just a few pics of RG-Fs on Minis, and none of the RG-R. For any of you with such a car, could you please post up some pics, or point me to them?
Also any opinions about my conundrum are welcomed.

I actually have the RGR's on my daily driver, and I have a customer with RG-F's on his MINI. I'll see If I can get a few pics for you. It's rainy here, so it may be a day or two.
I can also get you the wheels when your ready.
Here's a link to some pics of some RG-F's, I believe it was stock suspension too.
Thanks. Those actually look like 15's, not 16's?
And TIA for any other pics of either wheel you can provide. I'm really on the fence and need to make a decision.. seeing them on some real cars (as opposed to the view-on-car option at Tire Rack) would be most helpful.

Thanks, Fatman.. you're car looks AWESOME, and I don't mean just the wheels...
What size tire is that you're running? Looks like a lot of sidewall there. Also, I assume the car has been lowered, if so, with what components? Thanks!
