Hi to everyone!! I have a Cooper S (dark silver) on order at Mini of Nashville and expect it to arrive around Thanksgiving. Am very excited about it, and have waited since August 16th when I placed my deposit. They sold me the car at MSRP. I just turned 50 and guess I'm going through the "middle age crazy" stage, huh??

Anyway, my question has probably been asked several times in the past, but please don't get angry at me...remember I'm brand new to this forum. Where can you find aftermarket CHROME WHEELS that look really sharp, for this car? I'm a chrome nut from the 1960's and I like everything about the Mini, except the wheels that come with it. Is there a website that I can view the choice of chrome wheels? I'm not interested in replacing the tires, just the wheels. I have tried tirerack.com, but they only list one set of chrome wheels.

Can anyone help me?? Mini thanks!!

Somebody in the site had their wheels chromed for around $400, I seem to remember. I'm with you, Chrome wheels look great, mine are just silver Alessios Good luck with the MINI. Ron.

In this forum window look to the right of the drop down menu. You'll see
[New Topic] [Search] [Email to a friend]. Click search, then search for chrome wheels in the key words field. Lots of prior discussion for you to peruse. Have a fun day.
