Wanting New Wheels

Hey everybody, I'm thinking of getting new wheels pretty soon because my tires are running out of tread and I figured that I'd get some new shoes while I was at it. I was looking at these, not sure which color yet (http://esmwheels.com/access/wheels-c-21_34_62.html) and I was wondering if they would fit on our cars. I'm not sure if they will because they ask for the center bore size when ordering them... If anybody has any other suggestions for wheels (max price of $160 each) they'd be much appreciated! Thanks

There are quite a few wheel threads on NAM. Perusing them is the best way to see how the wheels will look on a MINI. Sometimes how the wheel looks alone does not equate to how it looks on the car. Another place to see lots of examples is the various different MINI color "Owners Club" threads on NAM. Those are typically loaded with pictures of various cars and you can often see lots of various wheels. I like a lot of the OEM wheels so I would not be much help with recommendations.

I can't answer as to whether they will fit or not, but my opinion is that they would look good on the car.
