3rd Gen MINI OE Wheel Weights​

(with a bit of meddling by Steve)​

If you are the one other person in the world that will choose wheels for their weight and not for their appearance, you may want to see this list of 3rd Generation MINI wheel weights culled from the ETK web site. There is no money-back guarantee on accuracy and two wheels (Cross Spoke and Track Spoke), marked *, have two alternative weights listed. Not all wheels are available in all markets, so you may not recognize some.

Wheels are grouped by size, with the larger size groups at the bottom. Within each size group they are in order of increasing weight.

NOTE: If you have better information (see disclaimer, above) or would like to discuss or comment...wonder what "winter" wheels means, etc, there is a thread for such things in the forum: http://www.motoringalliance.com/forums/brakes-wheels-tires/25141-f56-wheel-weights.html
