anything is possible but it won't be a direct swap

Gen1 is a 4 bolt wheel

Gen3 are all 5 bolt pattern ....

Check if you got the generations right

Gen 3 F55-57 2014 to 2020
Use 5 x 112 wheels from 16" on up Not 15"

Gen 1 and 2
Use 4 x 100 wheels from 15" on up for the base Cooper, 16" on up for the Cooper S
