Show me your 16's!!!!
 
I consider 16's to be about perfect size for the Mini.

Show them up, bold and proud! :thumbsup:

Be sure to list your full suspension, tires, and wheels setup!

I can't wait!!! :nod:

check my gallery--volk TE37's, 16x7 (12lbs.), goodyear GS-D3 205/50-16.

kenchan Jul 18, 2006 02:29 PM

yeh, just doesn't have the slight stretched look with 16x7" width
when running 205/50/16's for street, but if you're an auto-xer, might
be best to stick with 7's.

the 0.5" difference in width is big.

UKCoopeR Jul 18, 2006 02:37 PM

yeah i am pretty sure that extra .5 knocks you into the next autoX class (max width 7")...i run 205/45 on 16x7 on the street cuz i am crazy like that...i almost went with 205/40 rt-615 but then it rained for 2 weeks and i decided it rains to much here not to get the gs-d3s...smaller is better(for acceleration and sideway anyway not for looks though as my fender gap is HUGE with stock suspension) screw speedo accuracy, if it is too fast i won't have to worry about speeding :lol:
