GregoryK - I thought you were joking then I saw the Tansy Love version in pink.
I can categorically say they are the most hideous wheel I have ever seen in my life. And being a woman I do have pink garments in my wardrobe.
What's interesting to me is that the bolt pattern is 5 x 112. I wonder if the steel wheels and winter tires I have from my VW Golf will fit my Cooper hmmmm *fingers crossed*

no mention of the center bore though. Hopefully it's the same as VW

Thanks! But do you mean minif56.com? Cannot find any info in the tires/wheels section.

Progress!
The next question, of course, is what TPMS sensors does the F56 use. *Crossing my fingers and hoping the ones from my '10 MCS will work?*

Unfortunately, they only come in 16", if they came in 17" might be fun to park the Run Flats on them for $50 per wheel.
I'm not really feeling much about the other wheel selections.

C'mon. Pink with hearts would look great with volcanic orange.

Our center bore is 66.6, so technically the F56 is Mercedes / Audi Fitment. Unfortunately I don't think VW wheels will fit (center bore 57.1).
