(SOLD) 18X7.5 PIAA FR-S/FALKEN 452s
Well, I've had these on my MINI for a good...7 DAYS!!! I just can't do it. The roads around my house are $hitty and these wheels are WAY too nice. So, I'm seriously considering letting them go for the low. I have hubcentric rings and lugs to accompany the ride...

The tires are 215/35/18 Falken 452s. They are brand spankin' with less than 50 miles on them. They go for $139 each.

Shipped to the lower 48 for $1500 from Indy, 46228.

May be willing to trade for some 17" non S-lites with excellent rubber plus cash. Let me know what you have. They look like this...



Same wheels on DOPAMINE'S ride.

Those look good on your car. I know exactly where you're coming from about crappy roads and nice wheels/low profile tires. Regardless of where you live inevitably a pothole or curve will find the wheels.

Contact Ca$per on this site, I know he was looking for a set but we couldn't seem to find anyone with these in stock (now discontinued).

If these are for sale then would this not be a For Sale listing as opposed to a Feeler listing?

If the R56 has the same bolt pattern as the R53, then they will fit.

I'll have absolutely no use for the tires! Shoot me a reasonable offer via PM, and we'll work it out. ron.

What year R53 is yours? If built before 5/06 then lugs are 12 mm
and won't fit a late model R53 or R56 without mods since they moved to
14mm after 5/06... I'm interested but have an R53 with 10/06 build date. Wheels look great...

My R53 is an '02...so I guess that would make it a 12mm lug. Bore them out to 14mm and pick these puppies up!

The other side of the car. It's the angle...
