At least they are top quality rims.. Which, means they are nicer than 3/4 of the wheels posted in this thread...

You've got it all confused. The classic looks like it's about ready to flip the new MINI on its back.

I really wanted to, but they are pretty spendy. I'm serious. Unless of course you go to Target, where you can get all 4 plastic spinners for $20. Sweet. I have been tempted to get some and put them on just for a MINI meet, just to **** some people off. Well worth $20.

Weight was stated as being 14.6 lbs (I did not independently verify that). Offset is 40.

Found them searching around, I think it was some company that was remaking them with lower offsets. I think that one had an et of 0 hahaa. Let me see if I can find the link. Sounds like custom made to your liking.
