I've always been kind of conflicted about this wheel. Saw them in real life on a WRX. Part of me likes it and another part of me thinks it's just really busy. The finish on the special edition, above, looks fab, though.

Very nice!

Just noticed the two hole for valves. That's cool. But can you imagine trying to clean those puppies? Eek.

The beauty of these wheels is that you will never know how dirty they really are! The brake dust will blend in with the flat black paint! These are "no-clean" wheels!!!:thumbsup:

Looks awesome in those pics:eek2:....but in MINI fitments they'd probably look pretty ugly. The higher offset and lower width would push the spokes out and you'd lose all the lip and concave-ness that makes the wheels look so good.

or, just buy the hyper black MINI ones for cheap from Edge or Tire Rack and DIY

Gone out of production.

Tire Rack has only one wheel left.

Expensive, unavailable and heavy.

Enkei makes good wheels and their RPF1 is a whopping 3lbs lighter per corner !

Just in case unsprung weight matters to ya.

i still dont get why there is a 2nd rim (line) in the middle of the wheel?
without that line, this wheel does look quite hot~
and love the limited edition color~ !!

:lol: 3lbs won't matter much. NT03+M are MATS and are lighter than any stock wheel in the same size AND come in 17x7.5, when most wheels out there at 17x7 for the MINI. Calling these expensive and heavy is, well, just incorrect. Availability no idea....I bought mine in January.

We still have the 17x7.5 in hyper black for $169 per wheel.

hahah they're only 169 and someone was calling them expensive? :confused::lol:

PGT Oct 6, 2008 08:52 AM

a 17x7.5 that's 17lbs for $169/ea and in-stock? Perhaps Ian Venieri was right on ALL counts :lol:
