hi people

Does anyone have these badboys {alloys}

how does the cooper handle with them, what are the tyre sizes ect, how does it effect the sports sus +..

your thought please

Many Thanks...

Try the search feature - quite a lot out there already on these wheels...BUT, since I'm in a good mood...

I have 'em in white, the specs are:
205 wide, and 45 tall for the pirelli run-flats they wear.
handling is still fantastic - I've never driven a car with grip like it.
Ride is acceptable but VERY firm, but then it always is with SS+ - my advice is get them! The car looks great wearing 17's.

I've posted before on this too but as previously I'd agree entirely with JV and have added a pic for good measure...
