Rims

Just came in today. Installing tomorrow. So far I like the looks. Hard to tell until I get them on the car.

I think they can go 18" ... certainly I have seen one in Australia.

Hang on... it is about every 3rd car has this ROH adrenalin.

I think it is a good popular ozzie choice

18x8 with a 52mm offset. Just got them put on and I think they look great. Will post pics today after i clean her up. No effect on handling or drive as far as I could tell on the 20 mile trip home from the install. Love them.

Yes, the rims are stock size. 18x8 114.3 bolt pattern. The offset is just barely off. The stock is 50 and these are 52.

Love the zeon tires in the wet. Plus i got them at a great price because i know a Cooper distributer personally. I bought the rims for 900 delivered from JD Wheels online. Not sure if the mods will get on me as i am not affiliated with them in any way but its jdwheels.com. f you are interested pm me and i can tell you the great lady that was very customer oriented.
