Plenty about Mike. Try the classifieds or ebay, look to pay no more than £360 for a set with good tyres.

My 2p worth though as someone who has had S Spokes, Bullets and aftermarket alloys. Avoid the S Spokes, they are like lead boots for you car. The ONE and Cooper performance suffer for fitting haeavy alloys. My car was vastly inproved when the S Spokes went and were replaced with bullets.

I totally agree with Humph, and I've got S spokes . There are better options out there, although I will be changing my opinion when mine come up for sale next year
