It seems our difference is the tyre sidewall size.
I'm running 205/50 (102.5 mm)

Your wheels seems to be xxx/40, that's right?

(Silver/black wheels looks great on you car!)

 

Yeah 205/40 16

 

My wheels:
Rim Diameter : 406 mm.
Tyre Sidewall : 103 mm.
Total Diameter : 611 mm.

Your wheels:
Rim Diameter : 406 mm.
Tyre Sidewall : 82 mm.
Total Diameter : 570 mm. (-7.19 %)

You have 4cm (1 1/2 inch) less in total diameter.
That info is very important to know what gap should be added to get a better look.

Thank you so much for your help macspeed704 !!!

 

No issues at all and all the people around seeing the wheels :O

 

Any way to lowering the car without changing suspension system?

 

Hammer. Lol take a pic

 

Now I'm at work. This weekend I will be taking some pictures of the wheels/car side and exactly what space is ready for be lowered.

 

Trying to upload images tonight

 

bump

 

Can u hit that with a hammer. It looks like a wield point on the frame. If it is just hit it up.

 

I'm in the way of H&R sport suspension.
Checking prices.

 

and not searching for stretched tire, just lowering the car

 

At 2'' I think the plastic trim will look funny/awkward on that angle. You could always trim that metal up to just short of where the plastic trim attaches to gain some room as well. That is what the "slammed" MINIs do..

 

Since there is not any problem with space, I will wait to do any modification after moving to H&R Coil Spring

 

Researching for best prices on sport suspension.
Any help is welcome.

 

Wow! Seriously get some wheels with the correct offset. You shouldn't have to cut, hammer, anything on a MINI.

 

I have the correct offset and the car will be NOT modified.
Just searching for lowering the car with sport springs.

 

You really need the proper offset wheels. The design looks great on your car, but modifying sheetmetal then expecting the fender trim to fit? Most likely not gonna happen.

 

Let me check if lowering the car is a bad idea and can affect the wheels

 

Total success!
There is no modification and the look is great.
There is not any problems with wheels, offset or something.
You can see the wheels through the metal line when checking rear on the side mirror

 

Glad you got it done! Sounds like some precise metal work went on. Looking forward to your pics, for sure.

 

Still looking forward to some pics...

 

I will transfer my pictures for my old iPhone and I will posting ASAP!
Sorry for the delay, I had forgotten to post these pics.
