There is a set of white R95's on the first page of the wheels section of the classifieds and a few more on subsequent pages, admittedley people have just referred to JCW rims rather than the R95's. You are right, R90's were not produced in 18" by MINI but you can get replicas in 18", I'm sure RVW has some 18" R90's on his MCS.

Excellent thanks. I'll have a wee look for RVW's pics.
Gonna hold on for a while and see if i can get some 105 or 109's. Either of them would have been perfect. :cool:

I presume 215/40 tyres are fine on 18" wheels on the R56 Cooper S, or are you safer with the 205's when not fitting the steering limiter?

On the R53 GP with JCW 18 inch wheels
Standard runflats are 205/40/18 runflat Dunlops
when going to 215 you need to come down in profile - not due to lock limiter but due to rolling circumference of the tyre.
I am now on 215/35/18 Falkens
I assume the same applies to the R56
