these Proline 950 style rims are on sale at Pep Boys for $66/each 15x6.5

The catalog has them fitting 02-05 Minis and i'm wondering if anyone knows if they'll fit 2006 as well...4x100 w/38mm offset...thx, martin

not to hate, but do yourself a favor and go oem.

i have no idea what rims typically go for, but $66 a pop sounds cheap. infact, it sounds really cheap. like dirt cheap. and that's dirt as in the dirt between your tire and your rim, after you bend these dirt cheap rims and *** out your mini into a ditch... a ditch filled with dirt, of course. cheap dirt.

not to mention these rims probably won't look very good on a mini. or any car that isn't a hooptie. or even a hooptie.

however, my opinion is up for debate. good luck

Martin,
Why not do a test fit out in the PepBoys lot. The rim looks like a decent 5 spoke design. I would assume your fitment question has to do with brake clearance so that is the best way to check.
Good luck and have fun modding your MINI.
