Audi made a similar wheel that fits my mk1 gti, is your mini 4x100 and can fit 14’s? They aren’t as deep though

Ooh those look like the old Subaru rally wheels! I think R14 will be too small, the smallest tires from factory were 195/55 R16

Lovely to look at, but a bitch to clean, especially the 13" ones - ask me how I know. Never, ever again, unless someone else is doing the cleaning.

The one with the black centre is an old Alpina wheel. There are replicas available.

The one you posted is an old Ronal R8, and they were made in a variety of sizes, PCDs and offsets - some quite esoteric: for instance, they manufactured a small batch of 13" x 5.5" ones for the MG Metro Turbo Challenge in the UK. It had the Metro PCD, which was the same as in the old Mini (4 inches = 101.6 mm). Rare and hugely expensive secondhand now.

Yeah, it wasn’t the most long term solution, I also slapped some 155/80 R13 winters on it and drove it around Edmonton.

Those little wheels made the speedo look impressive though, and it was always the first off the line..

You can fit 15s over the standard brakes (but not the JCW brakes). 14s are too small though.

I want bronze Enkei RPF1

Kinja'd!!!

Like these, but bronze: http://enkei.com/shop/racing/rpf1/

They look nice and are roughly 3 4lb lighter than my X-lite
