Ohhhhh, I've been known to use my brakes to their fullest capacity. 
Of course, that was with cars that were at least 600 pounds heavier than the MCS. 
But if they are forumalted for use on wheels, I am sure they will stand up to the conditions. Thanks.

The Drag D-9 17x7 is only 15 pounds? They look like the Konig Helium that is no longer offered in 17 in the gunmetal finish. Heck, that would make them another option for me to paint the polished rim.

The NTo3 may be on the fun side to clean ...
but I use good pads and actually find cleaning ... good for the sole
Thes wheels are my Auto - x set up now.
I REALLY like them
This is the Hyper Black
here are 2 photos
This first is with the garage door open and it is bright out today..
They look bright.
This second shot I closed the door and tryed not to get the flash reflection.

Engine 58: I'm REALLY starting to like those wheels. Added some to my Mini in Forza 2 so i could really get a better idea of what they look like.
Think i'm going to order them in a 215/45/17...but i'm not too sure about the the wheel size of 17 X 7.5 or 17 X 7's.

Drag DR-9
Not the best photos but will try to do again when I can get outside with better light. These are Drag DR-9s on a dark silver/black '05 MCS.

Monoblocks are machined from a solid piece of stock and are only made fpr certain fitments. Mini not being one of them. Not a huge fan of the 841R, but the 844R sure does catch my eye.
Yes PortMCS has the same wheel in 18x8. I sorta feel like I arrived in the same dress after him to the ball. I've been thinking of ways to make these my own...

After seeing wotagame's pics, I'm looking into 18" Drag DR-9s, listed at 17 lbs each, for my MINI. I also like the Enkei J10s, which have a similar look. Now I'm debating tires. The NeoGens are my top choice at the moment. (I need all-season tires for CO winters.) Will post photos when everything is in place.
