Upload into your "gallery" here on the site, or upload them on an external site like photobucket

Awesome Mini. Looks to be in great shape. What do tires cost? Presumably they would be incredibly cheap, but then again, they are relatively low volume, so maybe not.

Looking forward to the pics. I've always liked TE37s.

Winter?

I like these rims and they are for sale on craigslist for 220.


Anyone have a pic of a MINI with these?

Are they super heavy? They are called Winter rims on Discount Tire or Tirerack and I wondered if there is a reason not to use them year round..

I need wheels, tires and some droppings

I just realized the bolt pattern says 4/100 but the pic shows 5 holes ?? I ams not a car mechanic. That is a fact.

My 2003 R53 JCW wearing its new 15" Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 15x7 et35 wheels inc 195/50VR15 Yokohama Parada Spec 2 tyres.

I used to have 17" S-Spokes and the difference in the drive is amazing! This set up has saved my approximately 8kg of unsprung weight per corner.

They look great too, I think black wheels really suit the dark silver color

I'm loving the recent increase in activity on this thread in the last couple days. Looks like everyone is busting out their summer shoes! Heres mine:

Thanks.

I would say, but I might get jumped on for having an illegal/unsafe/poor handling/whatever vehicle.
