Mine are 17x7, 45 offset and 16 lbs. Mine came with plastic hub spacers. I hear you can get metal spacers from America's Tires. Call Don at 909-947-0114. He is the North American distributor. Tell him Shawn with the Red MCS sent you. He can take care of all your needs. Don is getting me a set of 15" 40 offset black Pro Race 1.2's and I have BF Goodrich KDW's to put on them!

Nice, test drove one today, damn that thing feels quick.

Are those 17s? They look super small, nice wheels though...

They are 17s with 215/45/17 tires. If you think they look small, you should look closely at the stock tires.

Indeed. If you put 16s in that wheel arch it's gonna look tiny!

I've been seriously considering the AR2s also, but hesitant cause up till now I haven't seen any pics of 'em on MINIs. I admit they look pretty sweet, but it's still a toss-up between them and the 17" anthracite Ultraleggeras. Hmm...

Nice. The AR2s have a very OEM look.

I can't wait to see an R56 with the arches painted. They should have made that a dealer option upgrade, this time around.

PS- that yellow is sweet. Much more substantial than the LY, IMO.

Vader, can you post a closer shot of one of your wheels. I'm thinking about ordering a set for my MCS and want to get a better idea of what they look like.

They sure look great on Zonker !

new 5-spokes

I don't think I've seen these up so I'm posting my new "Chrome Expressions" (808C1- i think?). I got these mostly out of frustration of how hard some wheels are to keep clean.

Whaddya think?

(don't mind the weird lighting- i was being "creative" (*wink*)
