Just placed my order for a 2020 JCW Countryman in Chili Red to replace a Porsche Macan S as my daily. My wife and I previously owned a 2007 Cooper S, so we were itching to get back into a Mini.

I love modding my cars, i'd like to get some new summer wheels and springs. It seems the calipers are keeping a lot of people from fitting new wheels, anyone know of the correct offset/width to clear the calipers? Also, has anyone fitted lowering springs with the Dynamic Dampers? This is going to be a long 2 months!

 

Nice build, really like the classic red/white.

 

You may end up with a 2021, did your dealer have a production slot available for a 2020?

 

Yes, I received my production number already. I originally wanted a 2021, but they told me I wouldn't be able to order until around May with a delivery of Aug-Sept.

Thanks! I've never had a red car before, i'm excited

 

Nice build! Can't beat Chili Red on a MINI.
