F55/F56 All-weather Floor mats
#1
So, I got my MINI $100 GIFT, and I want to get all-weather floor mats. I saw re-badged Weathertechs for previous year MINI hardtops, and now, I see these for the F56: ALL-WEATHER-http://www.shopminiusa.com/PRODUCT/1357/ESSENTIAL-BLACK-ALL-WEATHER-FLOOR-MATS# They sound like Weathertechs, but don't ride up the dummy pedal or up the surrounding well walls. They are, however, much cheaper. Do you think actual Weathertechs re-badged as MINI-BRAND are coming to the F56, as before, or are these here the new version that will be offered by MINI? I don't care so much if they actually say MINI, but I do care that I can spend my $100 coupon on them. Opinions? BLACK-ALL-WEATHER-FLOOR-MATS#

I Have Mini's Speedwell Blue All weather Mats. I love the way they look. They work fine for rain, but I have a feeling ill be buying weather tech mats come this winter to protect from snow and slush.
Another note is where it says mini on the floor mats is already wearing off after just a month. Ill probably be checking to see if that's covered under the warranty before to long.

I wanted Weathertech Liners also. Tried ordering them online but they don't have them for the front, only the rear. Huh ? So, I called Weathertech and they said that 2014's are not available for manual transmission. Something to do with the clutch pedal but, they're supposed to be working on them.I asked if I can go down there (I live a half hour away from Weathertech) and try out the 2013's but, she said that the floorpans were redesigned for 2014 and 2013's won't fit. Mini has 2014 all weather mats, not liners. The mats are $66 so, I'll probably get those for this winter and wait for WT to get their stuff together.

The JCW Pro ( ALL weather) Rubber floor mats are really nice, they have nice edges on the side to catch the dirt and water. But they are almost too nice to get dirty.

The carpeted essential version are very nice also as well as the all season rubber ones.
The all weather MINI branded / Weather-tech versions are not out yet, they might be making them in the future. But the essentials are very nice for an option.
Thanks

Went with the JCW Pro all-weather mats
I've been intending to get all-weather floor mats for my Hardtop ever since I picked it up in June, as I view them as essential items with the winters we get here in western NY. I initially was planning to go with the plain black set, and was waiting to give my wife something easy she could get me for my birthday coming up. But, after getting the $100 credit / gift, I decided to go with the JCW Pro all-weather mats instead ($102). Figured they would add a splash of color, and would match the rest of the JCW Interior Package that came with my Mini.
Ordered them yesterday for pickup at the local dealership (to avoid about $20 shipping). Don't know if anything about them will indicate if they are "actual" Weathertechs, but will post back here if so. (The black mats & JCW Pro mats appear to be identical in composition: 3-layer extruded plastic, high friction coefficient surface, etc. So, they likely come out of the same manufacturing process).

I got manual and it driver side always tend to climb up. I find myself constantly pulling it down into place which is annoying. Barely used but I plan to get rid of them soon as the weather tech version is out. Don't get me wrong - they do look nice.

Thanks. Was just curious since I am considering them. I thought they look nice too but have not seen in person.

I have the MINI all weather mats as well and have never had them climb up. The large Velcro pads underneath prevent them from moving at all.
#16
Same here. No climbing at all. I would have liked the MINI all weather mats to be a bit thicker though. I know they're just rubber and pretty durable, but I am sure that in the places where I keep my heel, the wear and tear will eat them up eventually. Hopefully it'll be a long while though.

I just bought them for my S F56 (OEM rubber mats) and I´m disappointed, they´re not from the same quality as the R56 ones (that I also bought), actually they´re of a much lower quality.
Being as good as they were the ones for the R56 had clear signs of wear after some years of use, I think this new ones will have a hole were I rest my foot in one year. Worst of all they´re not cheaper!!

Well.....sitting at work bored and rooting around on the net. Went on the WeatherTech site and searched for the liners for my 2014 Hardtop with a manual. It came back with a good result. They must've put them up yesterday cuz I had checked on Sunday and there was none. Good deal. Think I'll stop by on Friday and pick some up. 😁
