R90 REPLICAS

 

 

BBS CH = WIN. THey are awesome and would look superb on the mini - if only I could find some that would fit.... :(

 

Keano, how do the US-spec and EU/GB spec aero kit differ?

 

US spec have the lights / reflectors on the arches but the GB spec dont have those Same other than that as far as I know.

 

You can get some BBS REs from Japan which are basically the same design as the CH but come in MINI fitment.

 

My STi wheels pictured below!

Q.? Does any one know were I can find a hub converter for our Mini's? We have 4x100 on our Mini's but I would like to be able to put 5x114.3 wheels! Why you might ask! Cuz I have alot of wheels to fit my STi and I would love these (wheels below) that are on the STi to go on the Mini!
And I have the stock BBS wheels that go on the STi that are just sitting in my house with Falken RT-615's on them! The Stock STi BBS's have a good offset that wont affect the calipers or the wheel being 8"s rubbing the strut if mounted on our Mini's!

 

Have you factored in the thickness of the adapter to the ending-offset on the MINI?

pic of a friend's former MINI. these are BBS CH, right?

 

^^^ Those are not the BBS CH's.

 

Those are BBS CV i Think

 

SEX!!!

 

Why thank you!

 

nice rims

 

Those RG-F's are THE last word in lightness, if that's a big priority. The 16-inchers are less than 13 lbs each. Nothing even comes close, at least not a street rim. The only downside is that 16's is as big as they come, so you wind up with a lot of sidewall. I almost went this route before settling on my original choice, 17" LM's, which are quite about heavier.

 

kevinc your car is awesome,
by the way do you know if it is truth that the mini web spokes R98 are manufactured by bbs?

 

Thanks.

Not sure about the R98's in particular, but I do know that BBS does OEM some wheels for Mini.. as well as many other euro nameplates. The problem with virtually all of the Mini wheel options is that they're all heavy as boat anchors, and that's not a good thing.. especially when shod with runflats, which creates a double-whammy.

 

i can now join lol 18" R90

 

If they're 18" they aren't really BBS's

 

Look like 17s to me but anyways, take wheel off and check to see if they're real or not.

 

Same here. I was just joking around with him

 

they are 18s and they are Reps but im not ashamed to say it lol i love them either way, i want to do something different with them but dont know what any ideas???

 

Oh dear........

 

color the center?

 

why is it "oh dear"?? i would rather spend half the money on wheels and have more money to spend else where on the car especially when they are almost identical, i dont expect to please everyone, but im please with them so thats fine by me, half the people on here will have Reps
