Anyone have Revolution wheels?

I'm interested in getting a set of Revolution classic wheels for my '04 Cooper S.

I have a set of vintage magnesium 10x6 Revolution 4-spokes on my 1967 Austin Cooper S, and I want my new MINI to match as closely as possible. (Although I will have to go with the 5-spoke on the MINI, as the 4-spoke is not made large enough).

The largest size available in the Revolution classic is a 15-inch. Is it possible to fit a 15-inch wheel over the Cooper S brakes?

Has anybody seen these wheels on a MINI Cooper or ONE, which can accommodate the 15" wheel?

I think they would look quite nice on the MINI and help accentuate some of the classic design styling that was carried over from the original Mini. Best of all, the wheels are British-made!

Your problem will be the offset ... ET33 is the highest listed

What is the required dish and offset for the Cooper S? I tried searching this forum, but couldn't find it.

The Wheels and Tyres FAQ is the place to look

OEM wheels range from ET45 to ET52, ET35 is pushing the extreme on aftermarket wheels.

There are lots of wheel choices in the Minilite wheel style
