Cooper 15 Inch Tires - Special Order
Hi All -
I recently damaged a standard 15 inch tire on my base Cooper and tried to replace it. The problem is that the tire is a special order tire, only made for the Mini. Tire Rack has a three month wait on the tire, and my local Mini dealer didn't have one in stock. I found one, but it took some time and I don't like riding on the standard spare.
Just a thought - if you have a standard Cooper with 15 inch tires, consider buying a spare, just in case. The tire is under $80, but having to wait for it will put a damper on your riding fun. I feel better having a spare in the garage.
Just a thought, you may disagree, but for me the peace of mind is worth it.
