Hi just wanted to say I received my RSe12's (18") yesterday from NM. I pulled 1 out to look at it, and they are freaking gorgeous. One thing that is a bit strange my box says "satin black", not "matte black". They match the pics perfectly. I wonder why the difference? Not a big deal at all really.
I can't get them mounted until I finish applying my wheel sealant. Obviously it is much easier to do pre-mounting. I actually apply 3 coats on each wheel. It is a bit time consuming, but it is worth the effort. If I can get them finished up today, my local Schwab dealer quoted me $260 for EVERYTHING. Hell the quote I got from mini, which was for swapping out the TPMS only was $360!! And like I said that was for TPMS only. God knows how much they would charge me for removal, mounting wheels to my non- RF Michelins, road force balancing, and mounting the new set up. I'm sure they would nail me for at least $500. IDK my service guy who is the only guy I deal with is on vaca and won't be back until Tuesday.

I have this set up and love it. The RSE12's do have a nice sheen to then, perfectly between flat and gloss. The RE-71R tires are just awesome at AX. Mi would not run these on the street as a DD but I don't so they are perfect for the track.

Those are the wrong ones. Those are for pre F56. 36106856227 . For R56-R61 9/2009+.
These are the correct ones for the F56+ F55+ 279 + free ship. MINI part # 36106856209

Always watch those universal part sites, they cross ref things wrong all the time.

That sucks, I take it they won't exchange them since they have been fitted? Shame since they do appear to have the correct ones, so it's not like they just tried to sell you ones they thought might work.

Admittedly, the tires look much better pushed out on the top of the wheel opening, but they are also pushed out (too far imo) on the bottom.
For those reasons, I'm perfectly fine keeping my JCW stock for now. The true test for me will be when I need to get new rubber. I may simply swap over to the Dunlops instead of my P7 Pirelli runflats.
Time will tell!
#272
Yea, the body at the bottom pulls inward to wider tires stick out more.

Thank you for your reply unfortunatly i live in the UK,so if i ordered any wheel from the USA i would end up costing a fortune by the time i paid carriage and import duty.Just seeing what people are using.I know a couple of you guys have used Enkei and somebody tried TSW but these were in 17" not sure if they would fit in 18".
