Welcome to NAM !!!

Nice looking MCS!!! I kinda like the white wheels, but hate how much they weigh. Boat anchors. My first mod would be a set of Hawk ceramic brake pads so the wheels don't turn black in 2 days.

One of the coolest things about a MINI is how many ways there are to make it yours.

Happy motoring.....

I don't mind the white wheels. What condition are they in. If your interested in parting with them and they are in good shape (no curbing), How much ?

How can i tell the difference? sorry i'm a noob here lol

Wheels seem ot be in great shape i think one has a minor blemish on it. It will probably be a couple of weeks before i switch them since the other project just drained my funds and this time of the year is not a good time to spend money on me LOL.

I been trying to search for performance parts but there is all sorts of mixed reviews on different pulleys etc, where can i look to get the ultimate performance, when it comes to ecu, pulley, exahust etc.

Thank you guys
