Now that we know what the color choices are for '06, and the package options, what are the wheel choices? I am particularly interested in the 16" for the MC.

 

Try looking at this write up for the 2006 MINIs-

Looks pretty good for 16" wheels.

 

Thanks for the link, but I need to know what these look like. Where can I find pictures and names?

 

Below ... left to right:

• 15" Delta Spoke
  
• 16" Bridge Spoke
  
• 17" Flame Spoke
  

 

OOOH, I likey the 16" Bridge Spoke Wheel !

Looks like it would be easy to keep clean !

 

I don't like the flame spokes... nope, don't like it:(

 

hummm...not much of a fan of any of those.

 

Ditto! Also I don't understand why they call it flame when it looks like horseshoes..

 

I'm not a fan of any of them either.

 

Nothing great .... but the Bridge, if its not too heavy, might make a nice alternative to the X-lite. It has a sort of Minilite-look to it too.

 

Thanks for the pics.

I like the bridge spokes. I agree this looks like an alternative to the x-lite, in appearance.

 

Not feeling any of them....and downright hate the Flame one.

 

Did some authorize you to speak for me?
Seriously I am not liking any of them but truly dislike the horseshoe ones.
But then again, I doubt I'll be iin the market for another MINI next year.

Plus, I think they are compatible with the JCW Brake Kit.

My feelings exactly. Sure would like to know how much they weighed. Nice change from the X-lites.

Too bad they aren't 7"x16" instead of the 6.5"x16", now that would be way cool.

 

I don't know about you guys but every time I see a Mini wheel design I just sort of shake my head and don't know what to think. They always look way too cute to me. The only decent wheel set Mini offers are the one's that come from BBS all the others are always a disappointment

 

They look like a ring of welded horse shoes Not attractive IMO
