15" wheels for 2007 mcs

I posted a similar question in the main forum, but I thought I would do it a little closer to home. I want to put snow tires on a 15" rim and it looks like Tirerack has a setup that will work using a Montegi wheel that cost $99. Anybody out there put a 15" on a 2007 mcs or on a JCW in that price range?

I have purchased one set each of Rota Slipstreams in 15x7 and 15x7.5 from 18racing.com for my 06 JCW MCS. They are something like $480 or 500 shipped and weigh only 12.5lbs or so. ;-)

Thanks. I like the looks of the Slipstream and it's good to know it will fit my mini.

OK, I've done a little more research on this and it looks like the 15" Slipstreams fit over the front brakes but hit the aluminum support on the rear brakes. Anybody tried out any 15" wheels on a 2007 R56 MCS?
