New rims
How do you like them. They are Enkei OR25 with Falken 452s. They are 215/45/r17.

Picture is at Ke'ena Point, NW shore of Oahu, Hawaii. I will but, not in here I already have trouble pulling in and out of my apartment complex. I have to ricer slow/sideways pull into my driveway and I am waiting to rip off the front valence. But once I am gone coilovers FTW!! Also the uneven terrain isn't helping its 4x4 look.

Ya the Crowns that came on it were all chewed up with curb ras and a little rust. I am going to try my hand at repairing them when I get some time.

Nice wheels. I heard that when you got with 215s (vs 205) the speedometer is as accurate as GPS.

Great choice on tires. Not sure if you've ever had 452's before but I'm on my first set and they're ****.

That might be the most space between tire and wheel well trim I've ever seen on a MINI.
Like the wheels though !

Nice wheels, but wow that's some impressive rear wheel gap!

Remember though its on uneven terrain so its going to be a little off. And these rims were on my old car. They are awesome. And yes 452s are awesome they grip really well unless you go into a turn a little to hard and it starts sliding.
