So do you have pictures of these on your MINI? Or am I missing something on the link?Would love to see them if that is the case.

 

Nice wheels! Too bad they're SOLD.

 

 

^^^^^ Those are the SSR Comps in 16x7, which I sold to dpayne1 in order to buy the Comp Rs in 6.5" width. There is a slight difference in the center of the wheel. I will post side by side pictures tonight. I weighed the Comp Rs and wheels and they came out to 11.5 pounds each, which is slightly heavier than the regular Comps, but they do not require a hub centric ring, and have no center cap. I will also test fit the center caps from the regular wheels to see if they fit, although if you want 16" SSRs on your MINI buy the 7" wide, get the caps and rings and save having to purcahse the caps at an extra charge. Cheers to Alex, these came in plenty of time for Topeka '04

How about those pictures!!!

 

 

do the comp R's have a polished lip too?
i was under the impression that they were one color without the polished lip and center caps...
let's see some pic's of them on the car!

 

They have a lip, but its not machiened down like regualr comps.

NFO - PM me what happened with your car. PS Glad your ok!

The Rs are at [shameless plug ON] All German Auto in Escondido, highly reccomended shop [shamless plug OFF] getting Hoosiers mounted. I have an event Sunday and will get some happy snaps then. I bought the Rs for HStock, and as such I now have white XLites on my Cooper.

 

I don't get it--what's the difference between Comps and Comp Rs? (Aside from the aesthetics.)

Jeff

 

The Rs are MINI specific for SCCA Solo 2 Stock class rules. The wheels are OEM size 16x6.5, 44mm offset and correct 56.1 centerbore (no need for centering rings). In addition, they do not have center caps.

 

are we ever going to see pics of these wheels? what's it been? 6 months in the making? or more. sheesh. i probably won't like the look of them anyways but it would still be nice to know for sure. :smile:

 

I have been thinking about equipping my future MCS with the SSR Comps. From these photos it looks as if the spokes/hub extend past the edge of the wheel. Is this correct? Side view photos did not give this impression, but these photos seem to show the spokes are "out there". If so how far past the edge of the rim do they protrude?

 

I will take pictures Sunday at the autocross. If you need anything special please let me know and I will get them and PM or email them to you all. I think Alex has not posted since I have been keeping the masses informed. I should be on TireRack's payroll, or at least get discounts.

 

i cant take it anymore! i feel like i did when i was waiting 7 months for my cooper to arrive!

 

Chris you are already on my christmas list !
