Both the 17x7 @ 40mm offset, and the 17x7 @ 42mm will fit without any problems [assuming you use an OEM tire size of 205/45-R17].
However, you'll need hub centric rings as the centerbore (73.1mm) is too large on the wheel compared to the MINI's hub (56.1mm).

The adapter rings are available at Discount Tire in numerous sizes. They're about $20/set of 4.
