SSR Type C-RS!!!

Tire Rack's website now lists the SSR's as available on 05/04 in a 4x100 bolt pattern and +43 offset. Maybe I've just been missing them but I have been trying to find them for a while in Mini fitment.

I hate you so much, you wouldn't believe it. Those 3 letters dredge up so much jealousy it's not even funny. Well, actually it is, but you know...
