Hi all,

Two weeks ago I was searching around in this forum, and someone posted a pic in a thread of an Electric Blue (white roof) Cooper S that had some aftermarket 17" wheels on it. The picture was taken from the right hand side of the car, and from a fairly low angle - the camera may even have been on the ground. If I recall correctly, the rims had about 10 thin vertical spokes, but I could be wrong. I just remember thinking about how nice it looked

It was said that the rims were sold through a Mini Parts distributor or tuner, either in the USA, or the UK.

I really want to find this picture again, but have had no luck so far - can anyone remember it and perhaps post a link?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Tim

These are the 17" BBS RK's on Sam's MCS. I took these pictures. The car looked stunning in person.

Thanks - I think those are the rims, but not the exact photos I'm after... Doesn't matter though, as the BBS rims look superb. You have a great photo album there too

Cheers,
Tim

Thanks Way, those were the ones... The BBS rims above look better though!

Well, I've had to confirm DS/W on my order, so I may just leave the factory 17" rims on - at least until the tyres wear out

Cheers...
