first MINI mod

Im new to the forum, been using it for research on all the mods I plan to do. I did the first one today, installed my new 215/35/18 non-run flats on new wheels. The ride is about the same as stock with 16" runflats. My mini-madness cold air intake and Invidia exhaust are both on the way...

This is such a cool car, I have owned many, and the only thing I can compair it to is owning a Jeep. I have owned 5 Jeeps and loved all of them, even the few that were total pieces of junk.. go figure, but I couldnt stop modding the Jeeps either.

Love the Forum, its a great source of info. --Matt

So Matt, you say the ride on your new 18" rnon-un flats is about the same as on your 16" run flats? I would have thought a 35 series would have been just as stiff. cool.
