You could go to an Alloy Wheel refurbisher and get yours (depends on what wheels you have already) sprayed black. Personally I think OEM alloys look way better than aftermarket ones on a MINI so if I were in your position I'd get some cheap OK condition S-Spokes or some similar 17" OEM alloys, and get then refurbished and also done in black. This would prob be able to be done for £200 - £250 (plus the cost of purchasing the wheels), and I 'm sure would be a lot cheaper than getting 17" aftermarket black wheels.

Not sure what you think of this but its an idea at least.

Wanted to get black wheels on my LY/B Cooper S, and ended up getting my R99s powercoated black

Hi, I have a black MCS and like you I am also looking for black wheels. After weeks of looking, I am going with the team dynamics 1.2 black with silver rim. I had looked at the BK299, ROTAS and lots more, but decided on these. They are tried and tested by a few members here on Mini2 so I know I am getting a good light weight wheel. I will be selling my 17" S spokes soon on the classifieds, they are silver but can be black colour coded.

Cheers
Nick

The first that springs to mind is Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2s

I have these on my DS/B Cooper S.... They look the dogs danglies and are lighter than OEM wheels for better handling and acceleration/braking
