Here is a pic of Minionrails' car from the "show me your wheels" thread.



I think they're nice, I was considering them , but, IMHO, I think they're a bit too japanese-tuner-style that would clash with the Euro-style of the MINI. my 2 cents- Weight, I don't know but I would estimate at 20 lbs or over- they look kind of heavy in the spokes.

Also- If you were considering those wheels I would actually suggest going with the Tenzo wheel- It's almost exactly the same, but the quality looks better and it's offered in different finishes like white and gunmetal- Just google "tenzo" and "shu". Good luck!
