On 17s I’d say, with more tire. That one is on 18s. It was also the rather nice blue-green colour. It didn’t look bad, I preferred it to a stock one. It was definitely unexpected though.

If I had a Leaf, I’d totally stance it.
If only EssExTee could be so grossly incandescent

I mean it’s not fast, it’s not very practical, so yeah, perfect for stancing

That looks good. If my primary driving wasn’t highway, I’d totally consider a modded leaf

They seem like a decent deal for running local errands and short commutes, as long as you sell it before the batteries need replaced

Why does that look so good?!
The swooping rear end just looks so right when it’s been lowered like that.

Those are 18s in the photo??!
Wow they really don’t look obnoxiously large at all.
I have 17s on my MINI (1. they’re actually a stock size and 2. I got brand new tires a year ago when I got it so....yeah) and I think they’re too big for my taste. I like the 15s I have on my snow tires and would probably be most satisfied with 16s (especially with a big brake kit :)

I think that's what it said where I got the picture, might've been 17s now I'm not sure. They do look really reasonably sized. 16s sound good for a Mini, I can totally see 17s feeling too big

I don't even know, it looks so much better than factory height. The back end makes more sense like this

I hate the 17s on my MINI. Doesnt help they are 25lbs each. The tires I have on them are 22.5lbs each. :’( I have 200lbs of wheels and tires.

Dang. I don’t wanna think about how heavy my setup is...
I’ve been keeping my eye out on Craiglist for 15s or 16s but I’m not too keen on buying another set of good summer tires and letting the current ones go to waste (or sold for $100 :/).
But either way, I haven’t found anything good yet - still lookin....

This seems like forever ago, but that is actually my car. Yes those were 18's and it was on an air ride setup that I built.

Nice! It looks really good. Was the air ride system a one off?
