| Wheel/tire suggestions? Dealer supplied pictures of my '03 MCS, all red, aero kit, sport, premium, and cold packages. Any wheel/tire suggestions? Currently has 17" perfomance run flats. Car will be here in 6-8 days. Waiting......  '03 CR MCS Last edited by mudshark; Feb 6th, 2003 at 05:25 AM.  |

 The car looks kind of dark so I think some dark wheels would match it well, perhaps something in anthracite? I think the OZ F1 wheels mentioned in another thread might look good, http://www.mini2.com/forum/showthrea...threadid=23341 Kind of heavy but they look good. That thread mentions some lighter alternatives. Harry MINI Cooper Cabrio: now the car with go cart handling really feels like an open go cart!

| Thanks HarryIndiBlue, Thanks for the link. Found some great possibilities. If my car had come with the factory R-90s I probably would keep them. I'll check to see if anyone is selling theirs. '03 CR MCS |

| Wheels & tires. Thanks to all for the suggestions. I decided to go with 16X7 Enkei MM2's with Pirelli P7000 P205/50ZR-16's. Lost about 10.5 lbs per wheel. Better highway ride. About the same as before around town. Carry a small compressor and a can of Fix-a-Flat in the boot as the Pirelli's aren't run flats. I'm selling the 17X7 S-Lites with Dunlap run flats in the "for sale" forum and on ebay soon. '03 CR MCS |

| I like the wheels. I think the back grills would better in black to match the front. retroom 2003 MC,LY/W, sport package, wht wheels, cruise, chrome, Kaleido cloth/black, OB computer |

| Your car looks great - personally as far as tyres go, I'd run with Bridgestones every time. MINI Going.....Toyota Supra RZ-S Twin Turbo Coming....Standing Quarter, anyone....? |
