Riding the momentum of the other GP2 + BBS post... I'm close to pulling the trigger on this set of BBS RF 509 DBK 18x7.5 4x100 ET48. I did the math and it seems pretty spot on with stock other than the tire size changing from 215/40R17 to 215/35R18. Just curious, anyone have this setup and is there any clearance issues with the spoke design?
I saw this image, so I'm hopeful that it's a direct fit:
Personally i would never run 18 on a MINI.
Its way to much for the car. 17X7.5 or 17x8 with 48minus offset is spot on.
I have 17X7.5 ET38 and looks/handles as it supposed to do. 215/45.
I would go for 215/40 but sport cup 2 aint available with 40 only with 45.
However everything comes to.Whats the use of the car.
If the road you are driving to is in perfect codition and you only care for the looks its ok..But besides that 18 dont fit good on a MINI. 1st/2nd Gen
