New owner in arkansas

hello, my names nick and im actually not a mini cooper owner. My grandpa just got one though, an 04 mini cooper s. its blue, six speed, and he got a pretty killer deal on it. its got a few small issues we are trying to sort out, so I figured i'd join up on here and see whats up.
I actually drive an 88 Toyota supra turbo. its ugly, but pretty fun. its got 315hp/300tq to the wheels.

we are a forced induction kind of family.

anyway, what im looking for right now is things like tire and wheel recommendations, maybe if somebody has a deal on some used ones let me know, also the latch on the glovebox is messed up and wont stay closed, so we will be looking for a new one. eventually it will get a new pulley, and some suspension goodies.
