    NM engineering makes wheels that fit over the JCW brakes. They also dont need any hub rings. I have the 17" wheels. They also have them in 18"[​IMG]

    Thanks... They don't make it in the proper size... which is good!!! I will look further and will take the weight in consideration.

    That’s why I have a set of S-Heavies for my Winter beater wheels with snows on them.

    Nowhere? 23 lbs is HEAVY. As Dave said, like R112 JCW OE heavy. There's better options available but if weight isn't a concern.... Also better options than Motegi dual bolt pattern wheels on TireRack. https://www.wheel-size.com/size/mini/cooper/

    Also, you can pinstripe any wheel.

    I've seen people making their own pinstripes as they grind along the curb. ;)

    Not using centering rings is a real positive!

    Factory S-Heavies weigh about 25lbs each, and the only real thing going for them is that they are TOUGH.…..potholes don't faze them.
