Will this work??
Okay, I need some real world advise, too much internet reading is getting me more confused than anything.
Looking to buy new wheels and tires for my 07 MCSC.
Question is,will this set up fit on my car without any issues??
Continental Extreme Contact DW 215/45/17
on Focal F15 17"x7.5" wheel with a 43mm offset, and backspacing of 5.905"?
I don't want the tire to stick out beyond the black fender trim.And of course,
Don't want it to rub.
I appreciate any advise you can give me, I'm ready to order......

If you use OEM suspension then yes it will fit.
Compared to OEM 17" wheels-

The new wheels will be 1.4mm closer to the inner suspension and the wheel will poke out 11.4mm more than before which is fine.
Be sure to ask the wheel vendor for Centering rings to fit the MINI's 56.1mm hub bore.

Yes, stock suspension. I think this exactly what I'm looking for, wish I would of found that tire fit calculator earlier :-)
I have since talked to Alex, over at Tire Rack, and the Centering rings will be included.
Thanks again for your help.
