Got my new wheels this morning! Thanks again Williie for delivering them, it was darn good of you!

Now all I need is for it to stop raining for long enough to let me fit them!

I think they look bloody fantastic! Even the tyres are cool!:cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:
I had a right struggle getting one of the old wheels off. It had welded itself to the hub and took loads of WD40 and half a dozen karate kicks to get off!:eek:

Told Willie lots of times i liked the khans. They look even better on the black Gaj. Still one of the best wheels for the Mini.IMO

WOW Gaj, they look fantastic with the black. Very COOL :cool: See you cleaned them then ;)

WOW !! Looking superb GAJ :cool: They look absolutely stunning on the black car. Nice to see them cleaned up properly too :I I've got too say I agree with Malcolm, think the RSS's are one of the best MINI wheels :approve:

Now obviously you've got much lower profile, and wider tyres than before. How did you find the ride when you went out for a drive?

Them wheels look gr8...

I haven't driven far on them yet but first impressions are if anything the ride seems slightly smoother with less road noise than the 16" runflats. It's a different noise anyway, less intrusive. I hit a couple of wee bumps in the street and the car seemed to crash over them less than before, then I hit a bigger pothole and it still almost knocked my teeth out! I haven't been out for a proper run yet or experienced the tyres over a variety of surfaces but I'll keep you posted!

Looking great Gary. One question for Willie - why did you not keep them to put on your S - U got other wheels planned?

I'm probably going to go for a new set of wheels around March time, got my eyes on a couple of types but no final decision as of yet. Must admit I'm sorely tempted to go back to the RSS's again though when I see them on GAJ's car :approve:

I'm sure Gaj will sell them back to you as long as there's a few quid in it for him :D

Nope! I'm keeping them. He can buy my white five stars though!
