Few quick questions
Hey guys, I'm new to the forum. I dont currently own a mini but I am looking to getting one.
Question1: Is the new 07 mini wider then the prvious new mini?
Question2: If you get factory 18" wheels do they also give you the package rims you purchased, as well as the 18" wheels?
Question3: If you get 18"/17" wheels with your mini does the dealer then put lower springs on your car so that it doesnt sit higher?
THANKS

Go to MINI USA - they've updated the site to reflect the 2007 models - build a car, and find out. You can download specs, too.

I think that if you buy 18" wheels then those are all you get. And I'm not sure about the dealer adding lowering springs - that would cost extra money, so I'm guessing it's not an automatic choice.

You don't get the extra wheels.
If you get the bigger wheels (Don't quote me) but I think the dimensions of the tire change to compensate. i.e. if you get a 15" rim the tire looks really thick but with the 17" rims the tire is really slim.
