JCW GarageInterested in John Cooper Works (JCW) parts for your 1st Generation MINI? This is where JCW upgrades and accessories for the Cooper (R50), Cabrio (R52), and Cooper S (R53) MINIs are discussed.
Picked up my 06 JCW about 1.5 years ago and have literally looked on a weekly basis for a set of nice R112 Wheels to replace the factory S LItes. Two weeks ago a set popped up for sale and best part, they were only an hour from home! Here’s a before/after, to me this is how the car should have been ordered!
My wheels are covered, but I'm going to buy a set of Enkei wheels that are lighter than the ones on my car now, which are almost 4 pounds each than the stock S-lites.
I'll probably put the covers on the Enkei's too.
Because...I wanted to..!
There's about 30 different wheel manufacturers out there. But...there only about five really "different" wheel designs...made and "copied" by all of the manufacturers. I wanted something that I figured "few", if anyone would have, or even know about. Surprised anyone knew about them on this board..!
