Mini wheel clones?

Did a brief search here and didn't find anything... Are there any small (15") wheels out there that resemble the wheels from the original Mini? Does anyone here have them installed? Pictures?

Thanks,
R2

Here are a few links to wheels similar to the original minilites. I hope this helps.

I don't have any pics but I thought I had seen a mini somewhere on this site with Panasport wheels, but I couldn't find it either.

check mini2.com's aftermarket wheel gallery...there are pics of the panasports.

Panasport doesnt advertise having 15 inch wheels that fit our cars...but i think they do carry them

also, dont forget to check out www.minilitewheels.com they have 15 inch minilites

Sweet! I didn't know there was a North American distributor.
Panasport is allot like the minlite company in that they can make whatever you want. Custom offsets, colors, bolt patterns, and center bore.

Both panasport and minilite have american distribution. I prefer the panasports as the pics of the minilite wheels arent as appealing as the panasports. The panasports are also lighter
