Wanted: two sets of R83's, 16".

These are the five-spoke 16" wheels that are optional on the Mini Cooper "sport package" or available separately as option code R83. Prefer silver, but white considered, with or without tires.

If you upgraded to aftermarket wheels, sell me yours! Please state price, location (your zip code) color and condition in your email. If wheels and tires, please also supply info on the tires, such as brand anme and model, size, run-flat or not, and approximate miles.

Thanks,
Mike

PS: one set will be for track duty... mild wheel rash is acceptable.

I will be getting my MC in October and it will have the silver
wheels you are looking for. I have already purchased 16" R90s
to put on. I would like to sell the R83s and/or the performance
run flats that come with the car. What do you think would be a
fair price? My zip is 46979. I can ship by UPS, Airborne or
truck.

I took this style off my MINI to put on 17" r90s. Mine are silver and equipped with Goodyear Eagle runflats. The ones that were on the front of the car are worn about to 1/2 of its life I'd say. I'd be willing to sell them, but I was thinking of keeping them for snow tires. Do you think this is a good idea, or should I try to find snow tires for my R90s? I don't know what to do. You could, however, be a potential buyer if I sell them. I'll let you know.
