Look in my gallery for pics on a Silver MCS. BradB also has pics of his. Several people have them. Also, the edgeracing website has photos of them on MINIs, too.

002...are those the anthracite Flik Wasps?

I love the look of the Wasps, and the price is hard to beat. But I really wasn't sure of the anthracite Wasps on an Indi Blue MCS, I'd rather do silver. But since they don't seem to make silver 4x100 pattern Wasps...

But if that is a true color photo of just the wheel, then I might have to reconsider.

Although you've just made my decision that much more difficult

Ooh, those look nice, Pete! I also have a LY/B MCS and I was wondering how they'd look on my car. Now I know. I want them!

To my knowledge, Flik is an EdgeRacing-specific brand and is not sold by anyone else in the world (at least not under the name Flik).

Yes they are anthracite. They are a tad darker than the dark silver paint. These wheels have held up much better than expected. I would recomend a set of metal centering rings from discount tire direct. They got rid of vibration and feel solid.
