I hope you guys aren't emailing BMW with complaints about the 17" rims. I personally like the white mini-lites displayed on the Oasis MINI. I am sure that they are not standard issue on even the S model as 95% of all the pics on this site portray wheels of smaller diameter, likely 15" and 16" sizes.

I will definitely opt for the 17" rims on a Cooper S, if available. I'm not sure about this, but does anyone know if the S model comes fitted with larger brakes, rotors, calipers, etc? I know the configuration of some braking systems dictates the use of larger rims. Is this a possibility?
