Winter Sneakers
Put my winter treads on tonight. Dunlop Winter Sport M3 on 16" Borbet rims.
Let it snow!

Coopersburg! Cool.
I'd like to say I'm in MINIlani but it's Mililani.
Your MINI looks sharp AND ready.
Snow tires/wheels aren't supposed to look that good.

I wanted a set of cheap steelies, but they won't fit around the MCS brakes. These were $116 each.

If you can't get the steel look for winter, it's always better to go for the WRC Rally look. Nice choice on rims.

I did a quick check for wheels that would fit over the larger R56 MCS brakes and found no steel wheels in any size at Tirerack.com
For 15"
15 styles from $81 each
5 styles from $119 or less
For 16"
24 styles from $79 each
4 styles from $116 or less
For 17"
59 styles from $104 each
6 Sport Edition styles for $112 or less
I like those Borbets you have.
