I read in the faq post that the bolt pattern for the cooper s is 4 x 100 but almost all of the recommended aftermarket wheels where 5 lugs is there some sort of adapter needed to do this. Thanks Jason

Most companies do different bolt patterns for their wheels, nearly all 5 stud wheels are also available in 4 stud

Those BBS rims are bad and you can get them in the bolt pattern and a good offset - but they are HEAVY and only come in 17-19" - I think 17" may be a bit too much for such a small car (IMO).

Here are the specs (18 and 19):

BBS CH Cast 18x8 24.0
BBS CH Cast 18x8.5 24.5
BBS CH Cast 19x8.5 26.0
BBS CH Cast 19x10 28.0

I just light light weight rims so that the performance is not affected.
