    You will need to looks at wrecking yards.

    Search here> www.car-parts.com

    Take a close look at the front end of your MINI. If you bent a wheel bad enough to throw away you could easily have bent one or more suspension components. Is your steering wheel straight when you drive or cocked off to one side or the other?

    How about a picture of that bent wheel?

    Also check the top of your strut tower for mushrooming.
