    Great looking R53, by far the best Non-BMW looking MINI ever made. :Thumbsup:

    :cornut: Boy are Dave.O and the R53 guys going to love you. They will take you to heights beyond winning and spending to the ULTIMATE loser- the R53. Enjoy and learn from a variety of MINI people.:lol::lol::lol:(all in jest. All MINIs are winners).

    updated that thing a little. Far more to come over the course of this year. Heck, a "build thread" may be in order.

    Do you happen to know the brand/weight of those beautiful rims?

    I have a scanned receipt for the rims the first owner bought.

    ER Edgeracing.com in Miami Florida - bought in 2008

    Sportmax 039 16x7 4x100 ET40 Hypersilver with polished lip. They are pretty light but no idea what exactly they come out to.

    also found them in black when searching for above info in this thread on NAM - second image

    Opinion on these wheels for a 07 MCSa - North American Motoring

    I think the company is out of business, though.
