Help!!! I'm sending in my spec sheet for a cooper S and I just do not like the S-lites and I've seen other spider design rims that I think you can get from the factory as well. I may go with the 16'' standard spider design rims and sacrifice some cornering, but I really want to have 17'' rims. Can i get a 17'' rim other than the S-lite and what is it called.
Thanks to all,
Lori

yeah, love the look of the Cooper 5-spokes. If they only made a 17" version that would be perfect. interestingly enough, I saw a same colored S with those 16" rims in manhattan the other day.

17 inchers ur pretty much looking at s-lites or r90s....

most likely the cooper's 5 spoke on a S is because the owner found someone to trade up their's for the 5 spoke

btw, the 16s standard on the S are great rims.. the lightest of the larger rims and defenitely no slouch.. get rid of the runflats and get a set of rubber and your car will rumble!
