Those would look great on my ride! Are you planning to do anything with the breaks? I would probably opt for 16s because the ride with my current 16s is firm enough.

I've had them on for exactly 1 week now so I can't give you too much of a review yet. But so far they are impressing me, I took a drive this weekend over a mountain pass north of Whistler B.C. on some very twisty roads with full 180 switch backs up a 3000 ft climb. They held very well with nice turn in and tracking around some very intense cornering.
I also had them up to 130mph and again they tracked very well in a straight line.
For the price I can't imagine anyone not being impressed with them. The tread pattern is interesting with an asymmetrical design. Good contact down the center with pretty beefy outside blocks that gave no sign of giving in.
I read some reviews of other mini owners claiming they were great and I guess I'd have to agree.

Only at the lowest ride height.
Thanks.
It's transparent smoked vinyl. The headlights & taillights are also covered in the same vinyl, except in a lighter transparency.

Keywords for search: R56 D/S Dark Silver Konig Feathers Matte Black Dark Bronze
I bought these feathers 17x7, 215/45/17 in matte black, but quickly got tired of the black wheels (Had the JCW r105's before this in matte black as well). Painted them this weekend to dark bronze, which I was surprisingly pleased with. I'll update with better pictures eventually, its been crappy out. These are off my droid.

Back in the day with the R105's:
