Are Wheel Balance Weights Same as BMW?

Does anyone know if the clip on wheel weights for our Mini's are the same as BMW? Also does anyone know where I can get a small assortment of them?

I have my own computer balancer, and prefer to use these clip on weights in lieu of one piece or tape weights.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the response.

I still need to know if MINI takes the same weight type as BMW, or is it another type.

Thanks.
