Nope my local dealer didnt have one in stock for me to look at.

 

Want to sponsor me for the World of Wheels car show in Feb.? Will pay for a photoshoot afterwards, then send 'em back to ya.

 

Does anybody have pictures of these ALTA rims http://www.outmotoring.com/mini-coop...279_Wheel.html on there R53? also how do you like them? are they good quality? thanks

 

Hi Rickyr53,
Those are "alt" wheels not ALTA....But they do look nice!

 

oops sorry about that lol so is there any pictures of them on a mini? these are the rims i really want to get but i would like to see them on a mini....anybody?

 

I would love to see those. Do red striped wheels look good on any car or do you need some red accents around the car to make it look right?

Hi Dillan! What wheels are you speaking of? I have seen red striped wheels on pepper white cars and silver cars and they look good!

 

I'll be able to get you some photos when I get them mounted here soon....

 

Here you go....Just got them mounted today.

 

Hot_Shot: I knew you would take awesome pics, but DAMN that is really great looking!

BTW: What did you use for lug nuts / bolts? The color contrast looks nice!

 

OEM. I was thinking of painting them either black or blue though. Thoughts?

 

I am looking into getting some 17" twilites in grey and every time i try to view the bolts, i just get taken to your home page.
what do these bolts run?

 

Must be the clever photography. To me they looked almost bronze colored which to me set things off pretty good! Might try that?

 

They are a little bronze, mainly because they are old.....

 

Here are a few more with some side and offset shots:

 

^^^ Still lovin it! ^^^^ Thanks for the posts!

 

My favorite

 

A few new photos for ya!

 

You guys and your fancy camera's. You make me jealous, but I can't ever seem to get a good one with all this mods shopping! lol

 

This is the best kinda shot I get, and I always end up taking them with my phone, lol.



You guys show the Twilite in gold like my Feathers on the front page, but it's not an option on the website. Just something over looked, or can you not get them that way? For the great deal Jarid gave me for these Feathers, I'll prolly never get rid of them, but those Twilite's with as light as they are like the Feathers, they'd definitely be a nice addition! Gold with a red instead of black stripe? Hmmm... More of a "euro" look to instead of a "ricer" look like the Feathers. I like them either way.

On a bragging side note: My attention was shifted to a guy sitting next to me at a stop light trying to talk to me. He said in all seriousness, "Sir, I just want you to know you have a very good looking MINI Cooper... something a lot of people can't pull off." Didn't really know how to react to that other than an appreciative thanks, and a chuckle, lol. So thanks Jarid and ALTA for helping me get my car lookin' better for that, and several other compliments!

 

Nice car but you got a sh*t load of stuff going on there!

 

Could you give tire and wheel sizes? I know this is somewhere else but I can't find it. Thanks.

 

It's nice to see that the people who actually sell these wheels and post threads on these wheels don't bother to respond so they might sell these wheels. Nice drop of the ball fellas.

 

Umm not too be rude, you he quoted my post and looked like he was asking me. Not op or retailer....

Second, it took me all of 60 seconds to find the info on ALTA's site:
Konig Feather Wheel Lightweight only 16.5lbs.
Clears OEM Brakes (Including JCW)
17" x 7.0" / 4-100 / ET40 / Dual Bolt Pattern


As for tire size, I went with 215/40 and am lowered about an inch.

It's funny how being nice and simply asking a question gets nothing and being rude gets a response withing about five minutes. Sorry for the rudeness of my post. Nothing personal.
