Smile Black Mini Alloys - Help Needed

Hi

Im looking at buying a new set of Gloss Black Alloys 17' for my Cooper S JCW replica. At the moment i have 17inch BBK 299 alloys which look awsome but have started to corrode and need a refurb. so im selling these and getting some new alloys. (refurb is £400+ near me)

Any Ideas?

I dont have a great budget but £500 is what im looking at spending.

No Diamond cut alloys though, they corrode too easy im really looking at all black alloys like the R112?

thanks in advance

Search for this on ebay- I think I recognise the seller name as a well respected member of the MINI community but not 100% sure.

Borbet make the JCW challenge Spokes (or at least they did for the Challenge Race car). Anyway, they are the exact same wheel as the JCW challenge spoke and around £500/£600 online (IIRC).
Tyres extra of course as Borbet are a proper brand, not like your Fox Racing cast Iron jobbies....
Also, watch out for fakes on ebay, i've seen a few cheap alloys crack which is pretty dangerous. Stick to the good brands (Borbet, OZ, BBS, etc) basically any company who is considered good enough to physically supply a major car manufacturer (BBS=VW/BMW, Borbet=Mini, OZ=Ford).
