Might be worth a shot. scolburn79 Oct 11th, 2010, 06:33 AM :( Hit a pothole and bent one of my wheels...
You and 10 other people I saw on the way home today. Be careful everyone, lots of BIG potholes out there at the moment 85NIXMIN Oct 11th, 2010, 08:39 AM Yes....I narrowly avoided a few on the way home too.... :( Keano Oct 11th, 2010, 09:32 AM S-lites are 16"
S-spokes are 17" 07BPB Oct 11th, 2010, 10:49 AM S-lites are 16"
S-spokes are 17"
Correction, they are both 17". Keano Oct 11th, 2010, 02:09 PM Correction, they are both 17".
Odd - perhaps its different over there with you guys c.f. here in the UK as over here they dont do the X-lite in a 17", its 16" only...
May just be a different naming convention perhaps... I was trying to help seem to be getting in the way lol
Ive attached a pic of an X-lite as it is called over here - is that what the OP is after ?
If so Ive found this listing (although it is for a set of 4 but pretty cheap): http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BMW-Mini-Alloy-Wheels-16-/200530070545?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Rims_ Car_Wheels_ET&hash=item2eb0860c11 MINIAC Oct 11th, 2010, 03:23 PM As reflected in the FAQ (http://www.mini2.com/forum/faq.php?faq=faq_wheels_tyres#faq_faq_factory_wheel s), some OEM wheels have several names:
17x7 R85 (http://www.mini2.com/galleries/data/572/R85.jpg) has been called S-spoke, S-lite and LeMans
16x6.5 R84 (http://www.mini2.com/galleries/data/572/R84.jpg) has been called X-lite, V-spoke and Monza

My bad - sorry about that. :redface:
Strange that they are called S-lites too seeing as how they weight the same as a small planet... lol OZmayfair Oct 12th, 2010, 12:45 AM :( Hit a pothole and bent one of my wheels...
