Vader,
The yellow Zonker: what wheels do you have on her/him/it? What size and how much were they?
Thanks

Yes, All MINI rims are 4x100 bolt pattern. 2002 to early 2006 MINI wheels were interchangable but not anymore.

In about May 2006 the bolts used on the MINI wheels were enlarged from 12mm to 14mm.

The 2007 MCS has larger brake calipers which won't fit MINI 15" wheels that used to fit the 2006 MCS.

So later 2006 and all 2007 MINIs have different larger sized bolts.
And larger calipers (2007 MCS) work better with 16" or larger MINI wheels.
2007 Cabrio and MC still have the normal stock sized caliper unless upgraded to JCW brakes or other aftermarket brakes.

All of the '06 cars built after approximately mid-July had the larger bolts, as well as all of the GPs.

Has anyone seen (or have pics of) white R98's? I know this would be a custom thing, but I haven't found anything through 'search'......I've been thinking of having mine done.
