new wheel !

Hello, sorry for my english but I'm swiss. I live in Geneva and there is a lot of MCS in this town. Incredible !!! I have a black silver one and I would like to change the wheels. I find this pic in a shop in Swizerland. 8X18 ET 35. How do you find them ? Do you think this MCS is lowered ?
thanks a lot.

hot, but i rather have thin spokes to show off bbk updates! that said, nice and thick accent goes with a car with stronger lines and more masculine sharp corners.... but that's just my 2 cents

and yes, its defenitely lowered

It looks great!!

Kind of remind me Audi A8's wheels...

But still looks nice!

It's definitely lowered. Take a look in my gallery, my car has 18's and is lowered on M7 springs, the MINI in your photo appears to sit lower than my car.

As for the wheels, it's totally up to your taste - wheels are like music and women (or men), everyone's taste is different. Tell us what you decide to do!

personally I really don't care for the wheels. But each to their own.

VERY original....I think they look real good. A rather unique look for the Mini, but I Think it works. Especially on Dark SIlver.
