Can you let me know when they are in? Thanks. Do you know what size the tires are on that Clubman?

No, but we usually run 225/35R18 on those wheels.

Very cool! Do they come in 17? The car came with an extra set of 17" tires that I wanted to mount.

Also, is there any chance you can tell me if my car is lowered (picture below)? I'm wondering because the car supposedly has the full John Cooper Works package (2006), but I've read that the JCW springs are red and mine are black, so I'm wondering if they're aftermarket or if I missed out on the JCW suspension upgrade? Thanks!

Are the 16x6.5 +45 Rota Slipstreams still available for order from Rota?
They have been out of stock on Rota's website for several months now.

http://rotawheel.com/AVAILABILITY.htm

Will they ever do another run of those? Can they be special ordered?

It's a little hard to tell from just a picture, but it looks like pretty normal ride height to me.

We have to order a lot, and there just isn't that much demand for that fitment. I don't think we're going to get it again.

Sorry, I don't know when or if they'll be released in the U.S.

The shop car doesn't live here anymore. A new owner in Maryland is enjoying it.

Lowered on Mach V Technic springs. No spacers. 225/35R18 tires.

Offset varies by wheel. Most OEM MINI wheels are between +45 and +52.

Silver is the only color currently available. Sorry.
