I put out a feeler a month ago regarding my wheels and tires, got many responses and several buyers! but now that I got car and see the rims in person, I dont dislike them.
Was gonna go with Motegi sp10, but now im thinking just to change tires(to hankook ventus evo)
Any thoughts?

I personally like to keep cars as stock as possible, but that's just me. Also, I checked out the motegi wheels ur talking about and I don't think they would compliment your clubman, I just don't like the wide spoke spacing.

the motegi were my third choice, wanted OZ or Breyton, but they would be closer to $2000 installed.
But I too like to keep cars as stock looking as possible.
SO I think im gonna go for tires only
if anyone wants to buy a set of run flats.......

New 2012 w/s Clubman S

SO, I picked up my clubman on Wednesday. Traded in my 2010 Gti.
Both are manual transmission.
I opted for sunroof, tech package and white silver package.
got a great deal and great value on my trade(actually had almost $500 in positive equity and it was a lease with no money down!!!!)
Gti was tuned with APR, which was the only mod, everything else stock.
it felt a lot stronger then the mini of course. Im sure with a Tune you can wake up the beast!
I am planning on changing the tires next week to Hankook ventus evos.
was thinking on getting Breytons, but they are $$$$$, then thought of going with Motegi sp10s, at the end, i like the stock look, so I will keep stock rims for now.
Car feels stiffer then the Gti, and engine feels a lot less refined. Dont get me wrong I love the car, and the WS with Black headlight housing looks amazing!!
Connect is not that intuitive and all the Mission control, Dynamic music and minimalism are fun and quirky but I can see it getting old fast. however it was worth the extra money for me(which actually came to $500 extra) for the connect as I can control my music through the screen more intuitivly and looks nicer and fills that round speedometer nicely.
HK system is ok, better then stock, but still just ok. worth the upgrade.
anyway, no complaints, just thought id throw in my initial thoughts.
So far I'm pretty stoked, and can't wait to get it tuned possibly
