If Kumho doesn't get it's act together this year and give us some usable 16" 710's, I'm going with The Tech R's next season.

Talk to Alex@tirerack.com for more info on the Tech R
http://www.tirerack.com/tires/Sizes....n&model=Tech+R
They cost more than Kumho victoracers or V.700

They come in 225/50-16 and have an outer tire diameter of 24.9". $162-177 each.

Might be a bit wide for a lowered MINI and not get a risk of rubbing.
The shoulders are rounded so that should help reduce rubbing.
