Show me your WHEELS!
ur right!
Thanks for the info. What about these puppies? Do you guys know of any MCS wearing a set of Weds Sports?
Super nice. I think they would look sick on my jet black.
If you guys know anyone with this wheels on let me know. Would love to see how they look.

Dare X4
FYI concerning the Dare X4 for those who want to know:
They're a bit more show than go; but despite being 18", they're lighter than the 17" S-spokes. For those who want exact weight, check out the wheels (sticky) thread on mini2.
Ariercetinberk: as far as I know, at least the 4x100 version was discontinued a while ago. You might be able to find the 5-hole version in the UK, though.
As for me, I acquired them last year through a mini2 group buy for a limited/final production run of about 30 sets. Only two sets went to North America: one to the US, one to an obsessive MINI owner in Canada (that'd be me). They are/were made by a company called Dare Motorsports in the UK, and I believe they are/were distributed by West Tuning.
Here are some photos of other peoples vehicles:

Berk: Good observation. Perhaps it was named 'X4' for a reason 
If you're interested, I could hunt down some of the participants from the X4 group buy in the mini2 forums -- perhaps you might find one willing to sell theirs, or even find a surplus set. If I recall correctly, West Tuning did have a couple left over at one point.
In the meantime, your car is gorgeous; those black (racinghart?) rims are sick and the hyper blue is breathtaking.

tesekkurler Sarp,
as a matter of fact those are Motegis, 17".
I would be interested in a set of X4s, the only thing bothers me is the fact that I am dropping the car 1.0" front and rear, so I dunno if it will clear without any rubbing issues. But, yeah, if we can find a nice set for a reasonable price, I will buy them, and keep these for track.

Got these from the Sube-Dude for my intermediate wet track tires. They are Rota Subzeros. 17x7.5x45 offset. Excelent wheel, a bit heavy for track at 16lbs, but they took hardly any weight at all to balance They are wrapped with Toyo RA1, 235/40s
Yes, some body work needed to fit these, but nothing real major.

What was done to fit them?
