SOLD...17" Ro-ja Gunmetal LT5 wheels

Literally in brand new condition with less than 200 miles on them. These rims really look sharp on a Mini Cooper, and are very light in weight compared to the factory S-lites. I will include the wheel spacers, studs, and lugs as well. These awesome looking wheels (no tires) sold for $259 each when available, but have been discontinued and are very difficult to find. I will sell the complete set for only $500. Local So Cal buyer preferred, but will entertain shipping them as well. Here is a pic...

So are you selling them with or without the tires? I am a bit unclear on that because you said you bought them for 259 without tires, but I wasn't sure how you were selling them...

Thanks! :smile:

The Gunmetal wheels only; no tires as in photo. The runflats have been removed and put back on the factory rims

17 x 7. These wheels would really make a base Cooper that came with standard 15" or 16" rims look fantastic!

I just wanted to add that I have sold many sets of these for the Mini recently and they are a perfect fit.The actual sugested retail was 340/ wheel. The gunmetal color is now out of stock by the way and there will be no more produced. They are approx 14.5 lbs and strong enough to withstand some apex curbs and even a off road event at the track

O.K. I'll bite. Why are you selling them?

Seems like a lot of money and effort for 200 miles. BTW, where in So. Ca. are you? I may be interested.

Returning vehicle back to 100% Factory OEM condition, except for Magnaflow catback exhaust (I LOVE the sound and cruise with the tunes off and windows down!) and Whalen shift ****.

Ro-Ja does not make a center cap for that wheel. As they were designed more for a " track " use they never made a center cap. Perhaps some other cap from a different wheel might fit but it will take some looking.

I am already on the prowl for some, although I do like the aggressive look of the wheels without the center caps.

BTW, are these wheels powdercoated or painted?

They are painted . The way i looked at it for a 14.5 wheel under 600 for the set powder coating a custom color would still have you come out quite inexpenisve overall.
