New OEM 18" rims for the GP. Probably both heavy and expensive.

So, that's what my car woulda looked like if I went with the black ones! My guy at the motorsport place tried to convince me. I ended up with the hyper black.

but 19's??? Wow ...

the potholes here would eat me alive...

But it looks killer! Darth Vader would approve.

Kryiian, his are neither. His sig tells you the answer you want: "RO_JA LT5s w/ Goodyear F1s" Sometimes we look for things that are right in front of us, lol.

well the article associated with the pics is at http://www.tuningnews.net/news/05110...ooper-s-gp.php


and says

High-performance brakes by John Cooper Works featuring red-lacquered brake calipers on the front wheels ensure optimum stopping power. In addition, the GP Kit includes specially-designed weight-reduced 18-inch alloy wheels.
so those are JCW GP kit wheels.

Does anyone know what rims these are? They have a MINI centercap, so I cant tell. Plus I went to the autotecnica racing site and no luck.
