hi Guys. im new here and would like to see F54 with nice 19 inch wheels. after market wheels
thank you all. Best Regards Raian
Welcome aboard! Here are mine. Nice is subjective. I like ‘em but would probably go with a less open face next time. The anthracite color is charcoal with some bronze when it’s clean but the oem pads create so much dust they are always matte black looking. The stock brake calipers and smaller rotors aren’t much to show off. They are also 7.5” so I have small spacers so they finish flush. It helps give a little more meat on the side wall with the 225 tires.
IMHO, 18” x 8” with 235 would probably be the way I’d go if I did it again.

nice fitting and is so flush looking. may i know what is your wheels offset? this design is look like 19 inch. i thought is 19 inch. nice!!!
They are AC Schnitzer. 49 offset with 7.5mm spacers. I forgot to add the 0.5” on the width (they are 7.5” not 7. They are 19”. I’m not sure I’d buy 19” again if I were shopping for new wheels again. The ride comfort is fine, even lowered but I am on regular tires. With runflats, I hope you don’t have fillings.

How is the handling when on the road>? is it bumpy or comfort level? i planning to change H&R lowered springs. i have no idea how the springs feel. any idea ? thanks

im pretty sure that H&R makes the springs for Schnitzer. I can’t say if they are the same spring rate but I hear good things they are as reputable as they come. It’s a comfortable ride, considering I’m in 19’s with standard tires. My oem 18’s with runflats are much more jarring.

I agree that with the non-JCW models a less open face design looks better for sure. That is why I went with a more open design with my 19 inch Advan's versus my old Work wheels. I have 225/35/19's on them as I need to avoid rubbing but I know 235's are what is from the factory. I removed those RFT's and went with Michelin Pilots so at least that will help with ride comfort.

did you mount them yet? We are buried in snow on the east coast but you guys are probably into spring already in BC! Too bad you wouldn’t ship the work wheels. Those are dope.

I found a local buyer for the Work Wheels (for a lot of replies) and got that deal sorted.
I did test fit the Advans and they look good...makes the BBK look fantastic. Going to Dremel the rear inner fender a tad so I can mount with spacers. Advans are 19x8, et48 so I will use a 5mm spacer up front and a 10mm in the rear.

No I don't actually as the car was dorty that day and I couo document my negligence with a photo. I will be posting some soon once I mount them for driving season and will have spacers mounted and fenders trimmed as well.
Cheers

hopefully see your photo soon. I manage get bbs sr028 and havent fix in yet. once i fixed will post here too. thank you all for response experience.
Thanks! I am having KW V3 and the front splitter is Maxton Design.
I thought the maxton splitter was only for the JCW bumper but it looks great. I’m lowered too and am concerned where I live, that the splitter turns into a shovel in winter, but overall that’s one classy looking ride. The melting silver roof with the carbon scoop is a nice touch as well.

Yeah I thought so, too. I even asked Maxton on their website and they said it's for JCW only.. But anyway, turned out perfectly fitted. I am also worried that the splitter might be damaged if I lowered too much but so far so good..

It looks really good and not crazy expensive if you need to replace it. I’m always surprised that companies (maxton, duell, 3D Desgin) develop parts for the JCW body kit first, since there is a much larger consumer of a base with the S…The splitter has a wider tolerance since it’s bolted (versus the roof spoiler that is stuck on). Good on you for testing.

Yeah totally, Duell has the whole set of body kit for the S model though, but they are way too expansive...
I have to agree. I think the basic bumper, side skirts and rear valence are about $5k. You still have the rest of the car to do. I imagine it’s hard for them to amortize the tooling investment with a small niche like Mini, let alone a niche of a niche like the F54.
Nice WHeels
