direct-fit hub centric wheel options
I'm looking to get a nice set of rims and tires in the spring (or before) and would prefer rims that are direct-fit (hub centric without adapter ring). Obviously the OEM MINI wheels are direct-fit, and from what I understand, Team Dynamics makes rims that fit the MINI centrebore. Are there any other manufacturers with rims that will fit 'properly'?

There are some, but honestly, I wouldn't sweat it one way or another. Hubcentric rings are extremely common in the aftermarket wheel industry, and my experience is there's really no downside to them other than the occasional ring that sticks on the hub instead of the wheel. I've run many, many sets of rims, almost all of which came with centerbore adapters, and just haven't had any problem with them. In fact, I've run hubcentric wheels WITHOUT the center adapters (basically making them lugcentric) and again, didn't have any issues.

Those are the KDW-2 by BFG. Those are my third set and as was mentioned they do get louder than most if you do not rotate them frequently. The coil overs ? Why M7 of course They are actually the first set we had built and are still performing well.
