The car in the picture isn't mine but it's really similar. But yes to the wheels although they're a different spec. The wheels in the pic are 18x8.5 +42 and poke a tad so not really conducive to lowering more than a very modest amount.

Possibly? I have yet to get an answer for that. There was someone in a group I'm in on Facebook that wanted the diamond gunmetal color instead of bronze. Since the real work will be making the wheels in a non-standard spec I don't see why we couldn't get different colors since that's easy in comparison.

I believe the wheels in the pics are TE-37 Saga's which are already available in 18x7.5 +42, 18x8 +50, and 18x8.5 +42. All these would fit on the mini, maybe you need spacers but center bore and PCD are all good. If you really wanted 17's you could even get the 17x7.5 in 5x114.3 and use wobble bolts. Not sure how 'custom' you desire but I think you can more than work with the choices you already have.

The 18x8 +50 fit but will require spacers around 10mm to clear aftermarket suspension.
The 18x8.5 +42 are what's on the car in the picture in post #1 and already poke. They're also require ~10mm spacers.
And if you have a link for Sagas in 5x112 18x7.5 +42 send me that link because that's pretty much perfect. But I haven't found anyone selling them in that size.

Check out Ray's website they list two 18x7.5 in 5x112. It must be new though cause I don't remember seeing these two sizes before, I'm sure a vendor somewhere can order it for you. If I were tracking I would probably try to squeeze in 225's in which case 8" would be more ideal but 215's on 7.5" are not bad either. The F56 has such a frustratingly small wheel well...

I purchased my ADVAN RSII from these folks:
https://www.nengun.com/wheels/
I bypassed the US vendors that said they can't get them and NENGUN acquired and shipped them to my door within three weeks. Even with air freight, total cost was still significantly less than what the knuckle-heads over here wanted for them. Don't forget center caps if they don't come with them.

On the topic of track wheels, have you considered the BBS RF line? Lightweight, forged, and comes in sizes/offsets that you might be looking for. Also they have a distributor in the US so faster delivery. I run 17x7.5 +45 on mine with 215/45 tires and they're awesome.

I think it’s because they are made to order. NENGUN’s site even states that but the good news is that it’s available.

Tony at Evasive responded and said a batch will be finishing in January and he'll have them in Feb or Mar. That's actually pretty good timing for me. I haven't heard back from Nengun yet.
