Hi,

I've had my ONE D since November 2006. Originally it had the 15" Rocket wheels, which were fine but I really wanted some bigger rims and didn't want to stray into after market territory (although I do like the Dare X4 wheels!) So after saving I was able to buy some!

MINI wanted around £1200 for a set of 17" bullets with Dunlop runflats but I managed to find a set on E-Bay for a reasonable price and even after paying to have them fitted and my Dad driving to pick them up I've saved over £520.

They are brand new as the guy who was selling them had removed them from his Cooper S after delivery. (To have dealer fit JCW rims put on) The tyres (Dunlops) still had the paint spots on them

Got them fitted today, here are a few pics.

Before (15" Rocket's) :

Now (17"Bullet's) :

Wow what a difference Tom, it is looking much cooler now. And great price, there must be £500 worth of tyre alone in that deal!! Worth baring in mind for when I need new tyres!
