The R81 wheel and tire package is standard on the MC hardtop. Perhaps your dealer can swap wheel and tire packages with a hardtop on the lot or has a set of someone exchanged for accessory wheels at time of purchase.

Thats what I'm hoping for the all season should be a simple swap I shouldnt have to pay 25k for a car then go out and spend another $500+ for new tires on a new car. I still dont understand why a base cooper comes with performance tires its 115HP theres absolutely no need for performance tires on that car unless its has the sport package
