Will These Fit

I currently have 17" black rotas on the car and I am looking to get s-lites, just like the look of them. I just recently got the DT BBK, which fits perfectly with the current rims. I want to know if the brakes fit under the s-lites? any pics would help also.

I'm not entirely sure but you'll probably need like a 3-5mm spacer to clear the BBK.

Why don't you ask Detroittuned? They might know.

It's likely to fit OK since the S-lyte is a standard MINI wheel.

Using a small spacer would give you a little more clearance for the caliper but only for the fronts. 3mm spacer would not require longer bolts or studs. Hopefully you won't need it.

You can also try a fitment test if you have a local MINI club with any owners that have S-lytes. You can try out the wheel since you have your BBK installed.
