yah probably

 

I finally got my project under way... I picked up some KT1's 16x9 et 25 all the way around, I'll be running them on 215/40/16. Now I need to order my vmaxx coilovers and powder coat the wheels.

 

dayum, you gonna be pokin

 

Very nice

16x9 et25 all around:

 

Looks fabulous. What are those wheels?? Love that deep dish rim. Any more shots of them on the car?

 

I will post up pictures as soon as I get my coilovers on. The wheel gap is embarrassing

 

Ok so i see 16x9's do fit a mini cooper. Please post a link to where i can purchase these. I have stock sports suspension height so it should fit.

 

Yes they will fit... But you will be rocking some pretty big wheelgap.

 

I'm already rocking some wheel gap with my 16x8's lol.

I think i've found the rims that i'm looking for. KT1 - KLASSIK.

Not sure which offset though. 15, 25, or 30mm? 16x9 btw.

What size tire is that in the picture above?

 

Get the et25 if you're gonna get the 16x9

Im so over Keskins now lol. Too many MINIs rockin em.

 

Are there more colors than the silver finish? If you want to sell yours, i'm more than happy to take it off your hands lol.

 

What...like 2.5?

I dunno it just seems like every stanced MINI I see is on Keskins. I was gonna get em but I guess now Im back to wanting Equip 01s.

I still just want some damn Diamond Racing steelies but I dont know for sure that they'll clear the brakes so Im not pulling the trigger.

Im also considering CCW Classics but since they're based out of Florida, EVERYBODY down here is rockin em. They're like the East Cost version of the BBS RS. Right now I think the only way Id get em is if I picked up a sponsorship or something.

I wish there were more cool OEMs from other cars in 4x100 :(

 

Are these the Keskin KT1 16x9 Rims?

 

No.

 

The only two I know of are Puma, and Dy. Viley has chris's old ones but I don't know if they're installed or not.

I'm running some cool OEM's for next year. Got tired of the whole small, 3 piece, wide, poke, stretch thing.Time to do something new for me.

 

15x12's ftw!! Haha ya' right. Like that would fit. Maybe with some really major trimming.

 

Ive been trying to do my research, and i feel educated enuf to understand an answer now. I have an 07 S stock susp.

Ive been contemplating between TSW (so conservative) and the vmaxx.
Ive currently got drag dr-18's and g force kdw 215/35/18 (if that sounds right)
Will I have significant problems with rubbing, abnormal tire wear, need spacers, anything else, etc?

thanks

Chris


o and uh my most important question--actual MM of lowering? is it a play it by ear with my setup kind of thing? estimate?

 

I just did 17x7 et37 with 205/45/r17 but thats nothing special other then sticking a tiny bit furthur out.

 

I am runing 21 et with a 225/45/15 with -3 camber up front and a 30 et in the rear with the same size tire.I geuss I should say what kinda tire, nto1 on 949 wheels car is low,low

 

^^I hope your wheels are at least 10" wide with a tire that size

Theres no way on earth you can be seriously low with those offsets and that tire size.

 

Im pulling it off with no problem. tsw has a built in spacer of 4mm+12mm h&r . 949 offset of 36 gives me a total offset of 20, sorry I said 21, and yes I am about 1/4 inch from full drop on bc coilovers. I will put some pics up friday or saturday. but if you cant wait to see it pm me.

 

^^How wide are the wheels?

How close is your front bumper to the ground?

 

949 15x8 I can get my fingers under lower valence ?
