OK please dont flame here. I have had mini for about a month. I want new rims. I have an 03 mini S. What sixe rims do I need? Where is a good place to get some? I want black of course:P

Ok. Thanks for helping a noob at the forum AND a noob to minis!

 

Check out Tire Rack, good price, good service, good choices. I have had Kosei, SSR and Enkei.

 

These

 

Love those Tenzo's

 

MY GOD! Those are frkin awesome. They would look so good on my red mini. Now to go look at the price :P

 

Thanks Terri!!

If I have an 03 mini with sport package do I have 17'' rims?

 

yes, however the 'S' doesn't stand for sport package, you'll have to look at your dealer invoice or post a pic so we know for sure.

 

mbsat your wheel size is printed right on the side of the tire:

i.e.

205/45-R17

first number is tread width
second is sidewall height
third number (after the R) is your wheel size

wheels that are 4x100 bolt pattern will fit your car.

generally most 15-18" diameter, 6-7" width wheels should have no problem fitting your car.

Tirerack.com has great tools to help you shop since once you pick your car it only shows you compatible equipment. They also have a nice feature where you can see any wheels they sell on your model car.

If you are looking at black wheels, check out Enkei, O.Z., Motegi, and Konig lines. There are many others that make black wheels as well.
