Good price and nice wheels (I have a white set just like it), but a 245/45-16 won't fit under a MINI. You might have to factor that in.

They wont fit with a 245 on them, If you buy them and put a 225 or 215 you'll be fine.

Kosei K1 Racing 16x7.5 rims with +43mm offset may fit a 2005 MINI base Cooper. It might rub the rear trailing arm in the rear, a thin 5mm spacer would give enough clearance. It's pretty close to the limit.

Stock rim for the base cooper is
15x5.5" +45mm offset or
16x6.5" +48mm offset

The 245/45-16 tires are taller and wider than stock 195/55-16 tires.
About 50mm wider and 1/2" taller. Not much clearance to fit and it's possible some rubbing can happen.

Speaking from experience (had a set this size since Feb 03), the wheels will fit just fine with no spacer. It's the tire size that's a problem without major surgery.

On these wheels, I've used 205/50-16 and 215/45-16 (no spacers required) with zero issues even when lowered pretty darn far. Stock camber as well as lots of camber. Spoke design gives good brake caliper clearance. If you are looking for 16" wheels, it's hard to go wrong with these.

Yes 90STX said it right. From what I have seen at local tracks these wheels really should fit a Mini. I originally bought them for my 99 Miata and it is lowered 1.75 inches and it is drivable. They are great wheels for a Mini
