Which coilovers are you on? Spacers or no? Any rubbing issues? I'm about to go slammed getting as much imput as possible.
Im on vmaxx's with -3.5 chamber on the backs. I run 17x7 +35. If you havent slammed it before you will rub the inner plastic fender and the felt like top until its gone/ learns to leave your wheels alone.. I havent had any damage just the rubber strip under the front lip has wear.

Reason: added pics
Okay thanks. Yeah our rims are almost exactly the same dimensions so no issues there. Haven't slammed it before I'm not too worried about your mentioned issues, just wondering if it was gonna rip my side flares off or not lol. And you didn't trim the lower air dam under the front bumper? It doesn't rub during normal driving? I've known a few people that cut it all the way off cause of rubbing. Adjustable end links or anything? Just tryin to get the whole setup done at once. And thanks for the extra pictures. My email's dorr.caleb@gmail.com if you have any more you wouldn't mind sending. Oh and p.s. you're astro black right? The pictures looked that way, just wanted to make sure. I love the color.
Its my second MINI, this time I went for the S and don't regret it at all!
I had the roof painted with mirror caps to pepper white from black, and had the JCW Aero kit installed and painted as well. Threw on the Laurel Edition Stripes on it and finished it off with some R113's.
My '09 Astro Black MC. JCW grills and surrounds, blacked out beltline and S 8 spoke wheels. I just bought it a few months ago so I'm considering if I want to do some graphics on it. I'm leaning towards a sort of Lotus F1/John Player Special gold accents, red mirrors, gold wheels. Still thinking about it though...

Here are a few pics of my '09 Astro Black MCS that I have modified. I have owned it since April 2, 2012.
