R99 wheel

What do you think about the new wheel. I love it. I hope the 05 MCS models have new wheels on them.

7 double spoke wheel

That is a nice design.
Not sure when we will see the likes of it.
Someone has been doing their homework

Agreed. Looks like a very generic aftermarket wheel and doesn't work with the Mini's lines. But then again, I love the S-Lite design...

If it's less than 20 lbs., I'm very interested. I love the S-lite wheel too, but their weight is pathetic
