So a pothole ate one of my crowns. I just opted for these. Theyre not expensive by any means but I like them muuuuch better. Just had the stock tires and TPMS swapped over. 17x7.5 et 38

Car is filthy..supposed to rain tomorrow :( and the rear is usually lower..ebrake



They do have a thick lip..and theyre .5" wider



i forgot the H&R sticker was reflective lol







EDIT: might as well add the newer pics for the late viewers

 

Sharp!

 

I like the look!!

Very nice!!

Nice! Dimensions? 18x?? And tyres? Are you on springs? It'd look amazing if you put it on some coils...

 

Those rims are awesome!

 

Those look a lot nicer than I expected them to look! I was considering picking up a set, but than decided against it; however, they are back on the list!

Thanks!

 

Those are really slick! Good pick, man!

 

Gorgeous wheels !! And I think you'll be very happy with them when youwashyourcar (see what I did there ? ). They look fairly easy to keep clean.

 

Enjoy those new wheels!

 

Had seen those and kinda thought I wouldn't like them. Seeing them on your car might make me think I'm wrong. Ya just might see a set of those on a Laser Blue Clubman soon......

 

the rear usually sits pretty good on the H&Rs but w the ebrake on the slope it looks all jacked up haha

stock tires are 205/45/17 runflats

thanks for the complments!

 

Sweet!

 

i think i do!......



























































nope...no i dont

 

 

they look bomb !
how much u get them for?

 

Pretty good looking. I can't read what brand they are. So what and where?

 

tire rack 105.00 ea

Elbrus 104s

they give you the hub rings too which is nice

 

Looking good! They seemed very "MINI" to me, but it's probably because the design is reminiscent of AC Schnitzer's wheel designed for the R56:

That being said, when your tax return comes in, buy some new tires! Seeing the narrow tires on those beautiful wheels makes me cringe a bit. Put some meat where's it's deserved!

 

Very nice. I think I'll do the same. But why did you choose to go 17" instead of 18".

 

Lots of reasons I'm sure.

Cheaper
Better looking (opinions in both directions)
Wanted to re-use factory tires
Better ride
Didn't want 35 series tires - the sidewalls are small enough as it is.

They look great!!

 

yup.. i bent a stock rim, and a replacement was A. hard to find mint, and B. pretty pricey in that condition

so i got these and am selling the good ones to people who need em!

 

I just put on a set of BBS RG-F wheels with Bridgestone Potenzas R760s. I went from 17" wheels to 16" and the difference in ride is huge. I have H&R springs and with the 17" crown spoke wheels the ride was like a truck. And I didn't have run flats. The other huge difference is the weight of the wheels. The OEM crown spokes weighed in at 22 lbs and the BBS are 12.5. I can feel the difference in the handling.

 

How heavy are this wheels, they look great!

 

Great looking wheels! The dark-finished part matches your dark silver MINI.
