Like the title says, I want to know what is the most popular black finished

rims for R53 Mini Cooper S?

Thanks

 

I wonder who could know that. Different people like different looks/styles, some try to minimize weight, etc. Assuming you're interested in aftermarket wheels, Rota Slipsteam seems to be fairly popular here; maybe Enkei RPF1, BBS, and OZ HTL as well. They all offer black finishes.

For starters, you might go to the Tire Rack website, enter your car, choose wheel size and finish, and see what comes up. TR even provides wheel weight info.

 

Welcome.


Like stated, it is all a matter of personal preference.

Where in NOVA are you?

 

I am in Fairfax. I am looking for something affordable and durable wheels. Now, I have 17" OEM wheels

 

I understand what you are saying. I am looking for aftermarket wheels that is affordable and durable. The reason why i am posting this thread is as many of you know some aftermarket wheels have bad reputation on their products. So, i was just trying to find out which rim companies have good or bad reputation. Thanks

 

Right on, I am also in Fairfax.

For the time being, I did my extra set of OEM S-lites





Like $40 bucks in materials, and 4-5hours worth of work.

 

Did you do it yourself?

 

yep

 

I'm running Enkei EDR9 wheels on my 2005 S. I love them so far. They've seen track time with no issues, so I'm satisfied.

 

I see, this is what i wanted to hear from people. Can you please tell me how long you've had the rims and you didn't have any problem? right? like bent

 

You should contact Dan, FastMINI.net, a division of Mach V Motorsports out in Sterling. He always has some rim specials going on, and ha a fresh stock.

The Rota RB are a really popular rim, hold up well under daily/track driving conditions. Available in multiple color/lip combinations.

 

Hello everybody I'm new here and have and I'm back in the search for a set of "Dare X4 18x5 please let me know if you know of anybody that has them or someone who is looking to sell them.

Thanks

It has probably been around a year now. I run blizzaks and stock wheels during the winter, so they are not on during that time. They also do not chip easily or fade. I have a couple scratches in mine, but they were due to swapping out wheel weights impatiently. Some black touch up paint does wonders. Can't tell at all. Buy some...
