Fifteen52 Integrale

Hello all, I posted this question in the wheels section, but no one answered me.

I am looking to get the Fifteen52 Integrales on Black Friday and I am wondering if I can run my stock 225/50r18 runflats on a 18x8.5 et45 wheels safely.

Here are the wheels:

Those wheels are so white, they get sunburned! Hell, they might even be racist! lol

I don't have the answer to your question, but I'm curious to see how it will look. I can't visualize it. They don't even look like metal

225/50 on an 8.5” wide wheel will fit just fine

Any issues getting them mounted? Will Discount tire even touch that? Sorry, I am just so hot on these wheels.

Here are pics of my CM with JCW Kit. Most will probably recognize it.

Isn't that only a 1/2" difference in width?

18” are 7.5”. Goodyear says 8” max, that is the reason I am asking. New tires aren’t TOO far away.

Okay, excuse how dirty my car is, it has been raining in Austin and I have brake dust on the front wheels. There is a slight stretch to the tire, but you would never know looking at it. The thing that stunned me about these wheels is just how well made they are and the little details. I think Fifteen52 is definitely under represented in the Mini community and I am going to see if they will use my car in any of terror future pictures. That said, when cosmetic mods are made to Minis they just pop.
