Replica JCW 17" wheel - UK stockists - MINI Cooper Forum

munchkin007 · #1 (**permalink**) Oct 2nd, 2008, 07:00 PM

I've tried the ebay sellers of the replica wheels but to no avail and STM just got back to me and said they don't have any in stock and none on the horizon!!

Looking for UK suppliers of Replica JCW 5 spoke alloys in 17" size?

Wheelbase - £399 - no tyres Wheelbase - official ACE, DeCorsa and Konig distributor in the UK

Anyone beat that?

Wow those are cheap. The JCWs are originally 18" though not 17". Just for your information. I'm sure you can get these official wheels quite cheap without tyres from Woodmans.

I want 17s really so have to go for replicas and and so that I can just swap my tyres over too as they are nearly new!

Thanks

OK cool!! This is a very good price! Hope they aren't too heavy.

I've asked them to weigh one for me. They must be lighter than the OEM BBS R90 wheels that I have at the moment though!

Oo they seem cheap enough, never seen those as replicas before.did you get a weight from them ?

munchkin007 · #8 (**permalink**) Oct 7th, 2008, 12:05 PM

They only get them in once ordered so don't have one to weigh until they are paid for!

They have now discontinued these replica wheels in 17" - no longer available!

Have a look here Performance Alloys.com

They do R95 replicas in 17" - £122 each.

Don't mean to be a pain, but the Replica wheels never look as good as the originals especially when its in a smaller size than original.

Either get 18" or get a replica of a wheel that is 17" as standard. Or better still get something light

I've since got some R99
