After much soul searching I finally made a move and bought my baby new shoes. I went with the Antera 309's because I have always liked nice shiny lips (on my women as well as my wheels). Weight savings was about 10 lbs a corner and can be felt when accelerating.

Well what do you think of Greta's new shoes?

Peace out

Bonz,

Those wheels turned out great! I love the polished outer lip. What tire and size did you use? Looks like the offset wasn't a problem either. I would have thought they would have stuck out past the fender lip.

Nice choice!

Now for the common questions:

What do they weigh?

How much $ ?

Where did you get them?

WTF ?!? SUV's outnumber MINIS in those pics!! :mad: :mad:
Just kidding, those look very nice, the deep dish look is very sweet, how the polished part matches the rest of the chrome accents. Very nice choice, and please advise tire size and model for curious minds.

I am very pleased with the end results. TWSTLVR after your last post I was a bit concerned that they were going to stick out past the fender wells.(Even though I had done my home work.Too much information is not always a good thing.) They are right at the edge and I will definitely have to keep the doors waxed & polished.

Darsky, they are not the lightest wheels on the market. They weight a little less than 25 lbs, were purchaed from GMP Performance for around $1600 delivered. I had to install provided hub rings but otherwise they ready to roll.

Opps almost forgot to give tire specs.

Thanks for the love

Hmmmm....me likes Greta's new, shiny shoes!! :grin: :eek:

Bonz,

I have to agree with you on the waxing of the doors and fenders! When it rains my MCS is a mess. Never realized how nice I had it with the stock S-Lite's! I guess we have to compromise somewhere. Ordering the H-Sport springs today from Randy. I will post some pics when I get them installed.
