Thought I might get in on the action. Here is my sparkling silver '09 S with my new Rota RB gunmetal grey wheels with 215/45/17 Michelins. Got the wheels from Fastmini.net, the tires locally. Would recommend Toscalito in the Bay Area. Jim on Lombard was helpful and beat the Tire Rack price for me.

Took the car on Hwy 1 today, a run from Mill Valley to Stinson Beach to Petaluma and back. And boy am I glad I dumped the run flats. What a difference in the ride quality, noise and reduction in torque steer. The car does not quite do what my 911 does, but it sure is fun to drive.

I just finished reading through this entire thread(yeah I'm a little bored) and all it's done is make me impatient. I'd love to post some pictures of my clubman but alas, it's still on a boat and I'm still in Iraq.

There is a new part number that I don't know what it is, as MINI just started shipping the Clubman JCW Aero Kit painted in January.

Call your dealer and they can get it for you.
