I'm looking for either a set of SSR Comp's or Racing Hart CP-035R's 16x7 with at least 42 offset for my GP.

TireRack doesn't seem to carry this size for the SSR and they don't carry the Racing Hart CP-035R's.

Thoughts on where I could look for these? I'm on the west coast in SF.

Go Bolts!

Just a warning. I have a set of 16 x 7 SSR comps off my 03 for track tires and they Do Not Fit when you try to put a 14mm lug through them. You'll have to get 14mm to 12mm studs from txwerks to fit them.

 

guess it depends on the year. mine's a 03 and running SSR Comps. no issues.

 

GP's have 14mm lugs as all new MINI's will.

 

Must be... I have 16x7 SSR Comps on an '06 MCS... I need hubcentric rings, but the lugs work fine.

 

The cutoff for the switch to 14mm lugbolts was mid-2006 (July, I think). My wife's 2006 MCSC has 12mm bolts (April build), and my 2006 MCSC has 14mm bolts (September build).

Sometime between those two build dates, MINI also switched to the Euro head unit for the stereo as well. (like the head unit in the GP).

 

8/06 up

 

none of those rims, so much played they are.

 

are you yoda?

 

I hope so.

 

nah, however sarcasm is my second language Ken, you wanna play? :D

 

I want another set of these 16x7 or 7.5 SSR Comps. If anyone ends up wanting to sell theirs, call me.

Oh and I beleive all the GP's have 14mm lugs.

 

Very good point and actually I meant to ask this on my original post.

The plan for this will be to CNC machine the lugs to an extra .5mm. This is still within a safe spec range structurally. Someone on the GP forum did this for a set of Volk CE87 "Time Attacks" and is very happy with the results.

Thanks for the reminder.

 

Cool but ... I'm not seeing them here either. Bummer. Tough set to find these two rims in 16x7.

 

www.japanparts.com then... they can pretty much get anything even
things not listed.
