I really dont like the mini wheel options, however i see that BMW makes wheels that im interested in, will they fit seemlessly or are the bolt patterns different.

Otherwise does anyone know of aftermarket wheels that look like:

No BMW wheels won't fit on the MINI because all modern BMW's have a 5 bolt pattern and the mini is a 4 bolt pattern. TSW make some wheels called TSW Pace which look a bit like the one in the photo. Hope this helps.

no they aren't bmw wheels. Alpina also make wheels for the MINI. Also i said all modern BMW's are 5 stud. 92 is not modern. Plus the wheels pictured are from the previous bmw 5 series.

people talk without having their facts straight, the wheels pictured in the first post are not previous 5 series rims, they are current 3 series rims, how do i know? i have them on my 3 series as we speak because they are my winter rims. Please know your info before you post otherwise everyone gets the wrong info

The point is that the wheels pictured in the first post won't fit a MINI because they have the wrong bolt pattern

Who cares if they come off a 3 or 5 series the point is they wont fit cos they are a five stud. If these werent available on the previous 5 series then some wheels that are very similar were available. Please ensure that you only post if you have something constructive to say about the actual subject.
