Anyone have any ideas where to get wheels like these outside of Cameon's?
http://www.advanceautoparts.com/howt...20021001mc.htm

They look like Enkei Greenlight's with bead lockers and in a 19X8" size. Greenlights only come in 15". Also, any ideas on the weight and offset of these wheels?

Also, anyone know how much they cost?

Thanks,
MinMax

There have been so many people whom have asked about those wheels, including myself. I have yet to hear what kind they are. I too would love to know.
Someone out there has to have some idea.

What intigued me most in that article was this statement:

"Simply by cleaning up the exhaust with a SVC-designed, Magna-Flow Cat-Back system, the company claims to have found an additional 19 hp at the rear wheels."

REAR wheels!

I agree.
I bet they never even saw the car.
Has there been any articles about the MINI anywhere else?
Who posted the pictures in the gallery?
Someone has to know about this car.

Here is a link to the SVC page on the MINI (pics only) ... the company (which I have never heard of) seems to do mostly large ugly SUV projects... The wheels have a distinct center cap but it is just the SVC logo.... they look kinda like the g racing wheels R-Speed is selling....

Thanks for all your replys. I found out that the brand is Bezel (at least that's what it sounded like) and that they are 40mm, and the real size is an 18X8, not 19X8 as the article said. I was also quoted a price of around $2,500 for wheels and tires (ouch). The guy said any wheel retailer should be able to get them, but as of yet, I've not found any on the web anywhere. Anyone else?
Thanks,
MinMax
