Awesome congrats. Can't wait to see the pics. Cheers.
No Mini but went to the famous 6th St Bridge in LA today with a few friends. Took out the Turbo to try out the new Akrapovic exhaust. It was awesome. Attachment 120282
Super stoked for my first Mini, now I just have to wait the 6-8 weeks for delivery. Hoping for sooner...expecting longer.

H&R springs and ecs spacers
I was going for 18" rims but i like the way the 17" look with the spacers now.
Will definetly go with 225 when need for new tires.

Looks very nice! I think the choice in wheels depends on several things & of course personal preference. I prefer the larger diameter wheels on the F56, plus my car is black & I'm not a fan of "everything being blacked out", so I was left with only 2 choices: 17" silver track spokes or 18" two-tone cup spokes....I went with the 18"s & I'm glad I did, since the 17"s in silver just looked small!
That being said, I admit the 17" black spokes do look nice on certain cars.
I wish MINI had more wheel options for the JCW, but we do with what is available huh?
The 225's are a good idea...anxious to see how those work out.

I'd like to see a close-up pic of how the wheels look pushed away from the front Brembos. Does it still look like a custom wheel fit or is the gap really "wide" now?

Yea I have them on the R58 JCW in 15 square. Had 25mm on the R52 also. Yes, there will be no vibrations or anything. Also like the black bolts for a perfect match to the wheel.

Thank you for taking the time to post up those pics! Looks good! I wonder how much clearance you will have on the outside when you go with the 225's? Those will push the rubber outward about another 10mm. Since you're not lowered you might be fine, but you'll be spraying the sides of the car in the wet, etc., mud flaps may be in order!
It has to be easier to clean the Brembos...LOL! Impossible to get in there with stock setup!..especially the cup spokes.

You right about the rims colors,
this is my R60 jcw
Love those rims but i think they are really expensive from the dealer, mines came like that but they are 19" i dont know if they come 18"
I love the R129 19"....that was the cup spoke wheel I thought I was getting on my JCW....I didn't know any different back before any JCW's were available to see on dealer lots (and anywhere really). I much prefer the "open" spoke design...would show off the Brembos MUCH better! That's a gorgeous wheel!...but not for the JCW hatch.
