Thumbs up M3 lookalike wheels on Cooper

This looks good IMHO. They look like the M3 style wheels, but they have 4 lugs. Maybe someone knows what wheels are used here:

M3 wheels

Hi,Lotatoys,they are replicas,I have found a couple of stockists in the UK,you can call and ask them about the rims, Autosport.e-mail sales@auto-sport.co.uk. or www.auto-sport.co.uk. R-TEC auto design,e-mail sales@r-tecautodesign.com(£126.82 per rim for 17"+p+p).I hope this helps.They only picture 5 stud though,they may do the 4 stud also,John

I've asked the owner of the car to give me the name of the manufacturer.
I'm waiting for a hopefully quick reply.....

I will keep you informed.
