Introducing "Haumea" (Hawaiian for Red Ruler)
Love my MINI ! Hubby bought it for me new July 31 2010--I dream of her, take 5 trips when one will do. Always smile when I drive her--Hubby calls it S-E-G. BTW, he has a 2007 PW MCS.

New Wheels
Finally got my Konig Feathers on. The tires are Hankook ventus 215/45-17.
They ride much nicer than the OEM runflats.

Thanks Everyone. The wait was very painful in the beginning, then after a few weeks i had almost forgotten my Motorbike. Took her out for a ride and totally relaxed me.

Brand new, to me, 2010 Pepper White non-S. My first, but definitely not my last. LOVE it.

Jesus, some of your Mini's are freakin' stanced. I need to invest in a nice suspension kit to lower my car and some 225/17's for my back wheels (neither mod will be performance oriented).

After looking through the last few pages, I'm even happier that 90% of my wheel gap is gone

Still just the springs unfortunately. Hopefully getting some coilovers soon to drop it some more but I can't decide on which ones I want.
