Hi all,

Thanks for the previous help in some posts whilst I was looking for our first cooper. It changed from a 08 plate to a 10 plate, picking it up from Mini at Dundee, it's got a massive spec, 1 owner with 30k on clock, but small wheels which I plan to change. It's Costing £7000 which I'm more than happy with.
What wheels look good on silver and am I best buying genuine alloys or aftermarket ones and do I keep run flats on it or swap them for standard tyres.

Thanks all,

Jason

Hi,

We/she prefers the look of the larger wheel filling the arch more with the 17" wheel.

I've got a set of 17'' genuine Mini wheels with tyres which I would sell (they're called bullets if that helps).

Thanks for the reply but it's the 17" where looking for, in particular the ones mentioned in the previous post.
