Team Dynamics Pro Race 1s are ET45. I use 5mm spaers to bring them out to 40. With my 215/40-17 Kumos, they're maxed out to the edge.

ET45 is standard for Cooper S wheel. The spacers are not necessary for everyday use. I just wanted to take advantage of all the track I can squeeze into the wheel well

MSFITOY,


Man you car is hot. I sware, everything you do, really adds to the car. I am waiting for my '05 order in January (have to wait for the LSD), and my wife is bugging me to get a Silver. I had an EB/B with black stripes before. I think after looking at your car, I am leaning more toward a silver as well.

Thank you. Thank you very much I'm with your wife on this one. Silver is a very timeless color and very easy to change the mood of the car with different accessories. Plus, they're rare so you're not driving past your self everytime you pass a Mini

MSFITOY,
Your car is insane. What size are your wheels? And what is that exhaust heat shield made of, it looks really cool.

They're 17's...but...because they're black, the only thing that shows while in motion are the lettering giving them the illusion of a 25 inch whirling ring.

The shield is aluminum for now until I locate some 18 gauge stainless steel stock. Thanks for the comps

No Problem, is your car on stock springs? If so, have you ever considered giving it a nice drop, giving it a nicer stance...
