Picture Request: Tirerack/Tire Discount Wheels

Hello,

I'm thinking about getting a new set of rims + tires from Tirerack or Tire Discount (seems to be the most convenient options). Did anyone purchase rims from one of these two places. If so, would you mind posting pics? I'm having a hard time visualizing the available wheels on my MINI.

Cheers,
Dertef

Tire rack website has a option to put wheels on MINI of your choice on computer so you can see what they look like. Go back to Tire rack select your vehicle (MINI) then search for wheels, then select to see it on your vehicle.

They supply a wide variety of wheels, so I'm not sure a random picture is going to help you, also what colour is your MINI?

Anyway, this is Shawn with the SSR Type-Cs and Dunlop Direzzas I got from TireRack:



And Tristan with the same:

You may wish to try sites like this:

http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/interactive.do
It is a interactive site that puts the selected wheel on your car for visual comparisons. Several of the tire/wheel web sites have this feature

The Motegi SP-10's look really sharp. Too bad they don't make them in 16". I was thinking about 16" wheels.
