Opinions?

I p/u my 1st Mini tomorrow.

The wheels need to go....After looking at all your cars during 6 cups of coffee I have found 3 of interest. Opinions on weight, strength, etc would be appreciated. Astro Black paint. Trying to keep cost down if possible. I had 19" BBS RS-GT's on my last car and do not feel like plunking down that kind of dough right now.

List: Leaning towards the ZR2's.
18" Privat Netz Black/chrome lip. Konig Crosshairs. Enkei ZR2 silver.
Thanks.

Close thread.
I found them.

My opinion is that the Mini would look better with a 17" wheel that isn't black.
I think the whole black wheel thing is played out.

I was leaning towards gun metal (match the arch better) w/ a chrome lip.
Now I am thinking black w/ machined face. Thanks for being my 1st reply.
