Would BMW alloys such as M3 alloys fit an R50 cooper ?
I was just thinking of a friends car, a vw which had porsche alloys and I am sure I have seem Ferrari alloys on an Audi. Could look pretty smart !:yes nod:

You can get adapters to overcome the stud fitment problem though. Learned that from my young immature Max Power/Fast Car days :eek:

Not sure if the offsets would suit the MINI though. Contact a BMW/MINI garage - they would probably be able to advice you further.
