New Countryman owner, looking for wheel help
Hey everybody,
New Countryman owner. Picked up a 14 All4 S a couple weeks ago. Silver with black top. My wife is not a big fan of the wheels so we are on the hunt and looking for some help from a group of people who know the cars. Looking for a solid retro style wheel in black 17, 18, or 19". Also not looking to break the bank. I attached a picture of the wheel she really likes, but its $700 each. So looking for any pics or ideas that people might have for maybe up to 200 each. Thanks in advance for any input.

I yanked the stock wheels & runflat tires off our 2015 CMS All4 as soon as we got it home last month. I installed stock size 225/45/18 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ non runflat tires on the optional MINI 18” Silver Fan Spoke wheels and it transformed the look and feel of the car! I highly recommend the 18” Fan Spoke Wheels....they are easy to clean & look awesome on the Countryman. I’m amazed that so many Countryman’s come with the standard 17” wheels that are ok but plain Jane looking imo!

As 02fanatic above said, the turbo fan wheels look good and very MINI. I have a set of 18” turbofan wheels on mine that I painted black and they look pretty sharp IMO.
Just remember that as you go up in wheel size, the ride quality does suffer, mine rides stiff and hard, but that’s how I like it, lol.... that sounds dirtier than it was intended:-/
