forgive me if I'm asking a stupid question, but why does it look like your wheels have two valve stems?

Some wheels have two stems so that if you want to fill the tires with nitrogen, you can flush all of the regular "air" out of them in the process.

Nice wheels as well as attractive. Do you have run-flat tires and/or tire-pressure monitoring system? Any issues with them if we change our wheels/tires on MINI? I am thinking of upgrading my wheels with 18" OZ in black.

Nice Legs... I mean wheels.... I mean mini....
Your smile says it all, lookin' good, I just parted with my Enkei RPM II's a bit ago, your rims are the others I was thinking of running with when I bought mine....

Enjoy the new look, really makes the car more unique!

no none of that , the only thing that happen was that the light for the tire pressure system turned on for about 2 days and then it went off ,and thats it,
now everything is well
