No worries. Didn't take it in a snarky manner. There are numerous reasons I didn't get an S.
For starters, I got a fantastic deal on my new 2018. I like that it came with just basic stuff. It's the signature model, and I like that it came one way and one way only. I just needed a new daily driver, and since I'm huge Mini fan, this car fit just what I was wanting.
I also like the way that the base models look. I know most will not agree, but it's simple looking, but still has character
I can mod it with a few things and still make it my own; as I'm doing.
Also, I have a Viper, with the purchase of a Lambo this Summer, so I like that this car isn't as Austintacious as the other two. Sometimes you just want a little simplicity.
Anyway, those are the main reasons.
I will say though, since owning it, I've noticed I'm wanting to mod it more than I had intended. LOL

Not sure yet, as the wheels I want are larger than my current stock 16" wheels. I will be going with 17". As soon as I know for sure what wheels I want, I will figure out the tires.

Here you go. This is where I purchased them from. They took a few days to ship, but they were here within 1 day of shipment. So that surprised me. Also, free shipping if domestic.

Those are beautiful! Love the color. Fingers crossed that they don't rub... too much =)
What ball seat bolts did you get? When I searched, I couldn't find any that were 14x1.25. I ended up getting these:

I also got bolts from ECS that are like 2-3mm longer, since these are about that thick, but I don't know how totally necessary that is.

I spoke to UROTuning before ordering the ball seat lug bolts, as I wasn't exactly sure which ones to get that would work with the wheels. After talking to them, they suggested that 12x1.5 28MM would work best. I guess we'll see.

Ok, I just did some checking around. You're right, 14x1.25 isn't available, and if they are, no one carries them. So what you're saying with the link below, is to get those adapters and I can just use my stock lug bolts with the wheels? If so, I'm just going to order them.
