Cooper Tires 2007 MINI S

OK,

I have been looking for some tires to put on my MINI (new wheels coming next week).

Wheels are 09 JCW Challenge wheels 17x7.

I have been looking at the Cooper tires. They offer this size in the Zeon 2XS.

Do you folks think they will fit on my 07 MCSa, lowered on TSW springs?

I really don't want any rub.

Zeon 2XS 225/45ZR17 91 Y 280 AA A

If you want to avoid rub, stick to the 215/45R17 size, don't know if that tire is available in 215 size, however.
225/45R17 is too big for a MINI.

Thank you, I was suspecting that. I may opt for the Cooper ZPT, a little harder compound but under 400.

So we all change our minds, today I ordered up a set of Nitto NeoGens in 215/45/17.

Should be here in a week or so. Warehouse ran out before I could order, thus the delay.

I will let you know how they perform and feel, these will go on my new 09 JCW Challenge wheels for my 07 MCSa (Scooter).
