Have the chance to swap my 15" Steelies for the standard Clubman 15" Star Spooler alloys. Was wondering if this would have any adverse effects?? I would obviously switch to alloy nuts to avoid damage .

Can't think it would be a prob but dealer wants part numbers etc to see if the wheels are switchable.

Any advice welcome. Thanks

Was at dealer yesterday for a fault and asked about wheels. They have confirmed that R55/56 wheels should not be retro fitted to an R50 as thread not identical and will wear poorly.

Strangley ok for R50 wheels to go on R55/56's.:confused:

I could go a bit cross-eyed with this/ Good news is I have picked up a set of 15" 8 Spokes from an R50 and all done and fitted. Thanks for the advice though, just goes to show that it is not always easy to make what would appear to be a simple decision!
