I LOVE MY MINI!

VerucaSalt Jul 26, 2003 09:07 AM

I meant to add...they are 17" Mille Miglia HT3's.....with Kumho 712 tires. I will be using my stock 16"s for winter driving. :grin:

HARMINI Jul 26, 2003 09:07 AM

Lookin' good, L!! :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:

How do they feel?? Any change in handling?

VerucaSalt Jul 26, 2003 09:08 AM

I haven't really noticed a big change with handling, but the ride is noticeably rougher....and I love it. :grin:

Greatbear Jul 26, 2003 09:15 AM

looks sweet L! :grin:
now you just need to tint the windows! :grin:
the wheels look so much better than the stock ones did!

Ryephile Jul 26, 2003 09:32 AM

I love it, DiDi is lookin' HOT, congrats Lauren :cool:
I think that if anything, you'll notice your wet traction to be much improved.

Have fun, and Motor-On,
Ryan

Looks good Lauren! Now your MINI is L33T ROXORZ! :lol:

dandp Jul 26, 2003 09:47 AM

Now you need to lower it!

Looks sharp :grin:

hafid Jul 26, 2003 09:52 AM

Sweet! Looks really really sharp. If you tinted the windows on that puppy and changed the front amber turn signals to clear ones that still flash amber, the car would look even better (not very easy to do at this point!).

haf :smile:

Smokin' wheels, Princess.

Looks Awesome. :smile:

dominicminicoopers Jul 26, 2003 01:34 PM

They look great with your MINI's color scheme! :smile: I'm just glad I'm not the one cleaning brake dust off of each of the "10" spokes. :razz:

Again, great combo with your colors.

Lauren,

DiDi looks really nice, very nice choice on wheels. I think you need to tint the windows next That would add to the looks.....

Thanks everyone! Next the windows will be tinted and I am painting my calipers...black. :grin:

Excellent choice on the black paint for the calipers! Understated...which is good.
