I just finished watching the Italian job and I think Bailey needs the wheels the MINI's in the film had. Any help in telling me what wheels are on the cars would be appreciated.

 

I think they just had the BBS R90's that are an OEM option from the dealer.

 

That was a quick answer. Thanks.

 

Should I be embarrassed to say I got Lightning Blue because I liked the darker blue of Mark Wahlberg's MINI in The Italian Job?

 

Should I be embarrassed that I named my MINI after Charlize's (Stella) ?

 

Not at all...If you like it, that's all that matters. I just ordered mine, and have NO IDEA what to name it...

 

Only if you got Lightning Blue because of Mark Wahlberg's MINI in The Italian Job. (I thought he has had better performances.)

 

i understand, i got those rims because of the movie

 

I definitely understand, I want those rims for my car! I got the Aero kit because of the movie.

 

Ah, yes, the R90 - - - 24.1 lbs. Third heaviest wheel on the Mini OEM roster. I guess those performance drivers were not terribly worried about, or obsessed with, excessive unsprung weight. They just put the pedal to the metal, and drove!

 

Maybe they wanted a reasonably strong, and not prohibitively expensive wheel.

Great flick, very enjoyable.

Stella is a perfect name for a Mini.

 

I have antrhacite R90s on my hyper blue MCS and LOVE them!! I also added Falken Ziex 912s and its like having a new car. Next up are the rallye lights for sure! I don't think I'll be carting any gold bars around though..lol.
