Thats an amazing looking clubman there

I must admit, I'm biased towards the pace spoke alloys

Believe it or not I sort of agree with you...I think...

In pics I think the R112's look fantastic, better than the Pace. BUT in person, I think the Pace wheels look better than the R112's, at least on my car...

One of the reasons I got my clubman was because it had the pace spokes fitted and they are clubman specific, well at least they are in the UK

Very nice! I have black crowne spokes, and I keep forgetting they are black not a dark grey due to the brake dust. lol

I've been contemplating which ones to get, the Carbotech's are a bit pricey but may end up going with it if all else fails. I have a business account with Akebono, and their Euro Ultra Pads for the Mini are still in development (Front pads are available but not the rear pads yet), i'm hoping to take advantage of my account and get a better deal on those. I've used Akebono in many applications and am happy with them as a brand..

Nice color combo!

And you are correct, you can only get the Pace wheels on a Clubby...My uncle has an MCS and keeps nudging me to give him my wheels to use (He has the Crown Spokes), but I won't give them to him...
