Compomotive Wheels

Anyone know where to buy these in the states? I'm looking specifically at the MO, powdercoated black or dark grey.

i love the old school rally look and i think it'll be a welcome change from all the teeny tiny spoked MINI rims out there





aren't they sexy? *growwwwlll*

I like them. I know there are Comp dealers listed in the classifieds of the SCCA magazine (SportsCar).

yikes! expensive

Looks like 332.50/wheel in black, only 320 in the standard white or silver. Maybe I'll go with white.

16x7.5 weigh 21.8lbs
16x7 weigh 19.6lbs


thats pretty decent right? i'm kinda more going for strength, I tend to destroy just about every wheel I get. I had OZ Mitos and I bent all 4 easily. I've already bent at least one of the MINI 16s in a nasty pothole

How about Revolution's. That's a pretty traditional UK racing / Mini wheel.

$708 to $756 a set in 17x7, 35 or 45 offset.

Unforunately, only in 17in

They're close but still it looks like they only come in 17s... I'm really going for 16 for weight and comfort. Thanks tho.
