Sorry for the late reply guys been in Germany (unfortunately not Frankfurt) WOW! Thanks Jon! Thats brilliant! Great work there! Just what I needed to see! Think the Anthracite R90s are getting alot of votes! I do love the R90s they are my favourate wheels! I just wasn't sure if the greys would match. Thanks guys for all your opinions! Its very very gratefully received!

Seen pics of a Belgian PL MCS with full aero kit and 18" R105s and that looked brilliant! but not sure I want the whole kit maybe just the side skirts. OOOH the options are endless!

Hmmmm anthracite R99s now that might be an option but I like the polished rim on the anthracite R90s. Thanks for your opinions though!

Got a pic of the Sidewalk wheels will photoshop these on aswell as theres a set for sale in Classifieds. They might look a bit silly though!

They are a pain in the butt, minis polished alloys are bad for corroding, dont put them on until the summer months.

Silver 18" R90 replicas ....... you know you want them

Or if you are in the money R105's

Some people are like a Slinky ........ not really good for anything, but you still can't help
but smile when you shove them down the stairs

ooooh 18" R90 replicas! Loving those. But I do think 18" is a touch too big.

I know PMP. I had the same wheels as steveM3 above 17" R90 replicas on my last MINI and they were quite bad with corrosion through the winter months. Didn't know that BMW quality was bad too.
