    Don't buy the S springs, makes the ride very firm plus they're designed for the S dampers as well, so might not match up with the rest of the one suspension set up.

    There's plenty of good non-run flat tyres around. I had Federals on mine they cost £60 fully fitted and would grip as well as any other tyre I've used. I currently have them on my MX5 at the moment.

    BTW the outside of the 17 tyres will be the same as the 15 tyres you've got on now, so no it won't look like a monster truck.

    Glad it wont look like a monster truck.

    Had a look at the price of Federals, seem like good tyres for not loads of money so think I'll be going for them if I get them online.

    ooh err, cant wait to get them on.

    This Mini malarkey is a total addiction!
