15" Steel Wheels for 2012 LC1 Coop

[Craig]

15" steel wheels wanted as above - not worried if they don't look the best as long as they are all straight. Would consider alloy wheels if they are cheap enough. ;)

In no rush for these, so could wait for perfect deal !! :clap:

Confused ........... LC1 ???

[Craig]

Should be LCI not LC1 (blooming auto correct. Means "life cycle impulse" and normally denotes a mid life update to a model built by MINI/BMW ;)

Ah but I didnae have a mini then ;)

[Craig]

Will 15" pepper pots fit R56 Coop? Found a set for VERY GOOD money local ;)

[Scottie]

Don't think so wont clear the brakes

[Craig]

Checked a few sites and there is conflicting info. Some say aye, some day naw ..... Most getting mixed up with the S as the coop and S have different size discs ... :confused:

[Scottie]

Thought the cooper had the brakes size of the older jcw.

I know 15" steel wheels fit but not sure about the pepper pots ... :idunno:

[MINIme:)]

I thought the pepper pot wheels were the standard alloys that came on a pepper pack cooper?


Ah but I didnae have a mini then ;)

you always had a mini in your heart craig! ;)

[Mon the fish]

R56 has the same caliper as the R56S, but smaller caliper carriers, and therefore smaller discs

[ianking]

Pepper pots will fit an R56 one and Cooper but not an S

[Craig]

Woohoo !! Thought so just wanted some confirmation ;)

[Craig]

Damn - didn't get those wheels :(. Reserve not met at £142... Dreaming if he thinks they are worth more than £150 second hand ! :thud:

[MINIme:)]

:( is that price for just steels or with tyres? just in case I ever need to get rid of mine! will need to find them a home in the noo hoose. Can I keep them in the garden??! (that's a serious question!) they prob won't fit in the little shed and I have many other plans for the shed anyway. They are through with their life as living room furniture...

[Craig]

That was wheels and tyres but I really just wanted the wheels and I would sell on the tyres ;)

If you think about selling let me know ...

You could keep them in the garden but they will rust with the dampness. Don't really worry about the tyres as they are used to being cold and wet !

[MINIme:)]

mine haven't even seen snow yet, you're not getting them :P
...not unless I have nowhere to put them :frown:

[Craig]

Still looking for these - or cheap alloys.

Let me know ;)

[SCOOTERBUK]

I will have a look around the parts dep tomorrow and see if i can find you a set, i am sure some of the mini firsts have had alloys fitted

[Craig]

Cheers ;)

Didn't get much use out of them last winter on my cars, but I have to say they were a life saver the previous 2 winters ;). Well worth the investment :yes nod:
