For sale, a set of four 16X7 Konig Tweakd wheels mounted with 225/50-16 Nexen SUR4G tires. 4x100 bolt pattern, ET40, 73.1mm centerbore. Wheels are black with red stripe, though the crappy lighting in my basement makes the red look more orange, and I have no idea what I did with the center caps, sorry. No centering rings either as I need them for my other wheels. They're pretty light, in the 16lb range, and show no damage. Tires are dated 0617. Also includes tire pressure sensors for early R56 Minis.

They were used on a 2008 Mini Cooper S for three autocross events, a time trial at a short track with sub-40 second laps, and a couple hundred street miles. Tires have some heat discoloration but Minis are good on tire wear and they still have about 7/32 tread left. Be aware these are 200 treadwear summer only tires, so they wear faster than "normal" street tires and are shouldn't be used in snow and freezing temperatures. Only selling because I prefer the 17" RE-71R on track. They have some heat cycles but would work great for street summer tires and local track events. I've included a photo of them on the car for reference, car isn't for sale obviously. Asking $450/bo, would prefer a local sale but may consider shipping, though you can imagine that would likely be expensive.

 

Your profile says 'San Antonio TX' but the location of the tires is 'NorthEast.' Huh?

 

That's what happens when you have two houses thousands of miles apart Wheels are located in Brookline, MA 02446

 

Still available, and willing to ship?

 

Still available. I'd consider shipping but it's probably going to be expensive. PM me your ZIP code and I'll get you a quote.

Still available, summer bump for lower price. Someone in New England Region could surely use these?

 

Probably too long now to hope for, but are these wheels still available? Would need to ship if not too awfully expensive?

 

Such a great setup for lapping. I should have picked these up when I had the chance
