Has anyone had these on their MINI? I am planning on replacing my wheels as soon as it gets here. If anyone has any of these, I'd like to see pics.

Any opinion are welcomed.

 

My vote is for the first one. More aggressive looking, uncommon and stylish. The second and third remind me of the rims on a first model Prius.
However, the rims on the first photo won't fit your Mini. They look like 5x100's, not 4x100's

i like the 3rd one ... they remind me of the Rota Circuit 8's which look good on the MINI.

the first one is more fitting style for some bling bling Denali

 

do the 15" rota circuit 8's fit a MCS?

thanks!

The first ones do come in the 4x100 for 16's. Have confirmed that all of these will fit the MINI.

 

i say number 3....


And yes 15" circuits fit...check the last page in the "show me your wheels" thread, zamirz just posted pics of his car with them on

 

I also like first one and maybe second one.. But 5 spokes might look weird with 4 lugnut holes.. what color car is it going on to?

third one is a exact copy of a volk racing CE28N

 

SSR GT1's are 5-spoke, and they don't look funny at all. I like the first one, too.

 

The car is going to be CR/B. I thought the black wheels would look better than introducing a third color (silver wheels).

 

like RallyMINI said, they fit and provide great caliper clearance as well. Mine were et38 offset.

 

So far that count is #1,2; #2,0, #3,3.

Actually I was leaning toward #2, but now am starting to like #3. Can't decide.

#2 is kinda beefy and strong looking with the thicker spokes. I believe that bold strong wheels look fitting on an MCS which has much bulkier styling with the hood bulge, and heavier styled bumpers. So beefy wheels tend to fit the MCS. Its my opinion though that an MC should try to maintain a rather sportier look to play up the more nimble elegant accents of the styling such as the sloped hood and smooth lines. A thin spoked smaller wheel might fit your MC better in terms of styling. Thats why i picked 3 over 2....fits the styling better in my opinion

 

Thanks, MINI Rally, a good analysis. I took liked 3 at first. The person that I rode with this weekend that is the president of the local club, selected # 3. Now all I need is to see this wheel on a MC.

 

Lurch70 mentioned the Rota Circuit 8's. What is the difference between the 8's and the 10's? Also what has been people's experience with the Rota wheel?

 

8 is 8 spokes, 10 is 5 double spokes made to look like 10 spokes...

both are replica wheels of volks ce28n, but probably closer to Mugen MF8 and MF10...

i like the third one too.. because im personally also eyeing circuit 10s...

 

kyriian is right on that one. the circuit series by rota are Mugen knockoffs. They are really popular with the Honda guys. I had some gunmetal 16" Circuit 8's. I was really happy with them. The quality was good for the price. The only thing that I wasn't happy with was the color of the "gunmetal" it was more brown than grey.
