Post pics of your R56 w/ black wheels!

My new MCS came with the black 16" 6-spokers. I'm going to move up to 17" but keep the color scheme of my Mini, meaning I'm looking at black wheels! I'll run the 16s through the winter.

Post pics of Minis with black wheels (OEM or aftermarket), don't forget to add the type/size, price, and a link if possible!

I have the same wheels as you on my '13 MCS. I will be ordering the Breyton GTS from tire rack, just trying to decide do I want to go 17 or 18.

Not entirely black, Black Star Bullets. I like these ones as they're not glossy like most of MINI's black wheels.

Did I see you drive by me in long beach last weekend? Saw a sick white and black mini that looked eerily similar to yours on Livingston near the Chronic Tacos!

I love black wheels...it kinda knocks a little of the 'cute' right off those mini's....next a big black racing stripe to knock the rest of the 'cute' off.
