I'd go with the 16" R84 (x-lite) wheels, since I believe they're the lightest MINI 16"
ones at (17.6#).
If you go for 17", the R91 (5 spoke bullet) at 20.6# or the
R99 double spokes at 21.9# are several pounds lighter than the other 17's that
MINI supplies. Also, if you go for 17's, note that the Goodyear Eagle RS-A's
are much heavier than the other 2 runflats available. The 16" runflats are all
pretty close in weight (22.6# - 23.6# )
