Drag is a lot like Rota....same quality/painted finishes, good prices, and general weights.

I didn't have the Drag brand wheel, but had the Exel mesh wheel which by all likelyhood is the same wheel.

I know that Discount Tire sells the Drag brand. I have them do all of my tire/wheel work. So we compared the 2 wheels on one visit, and like I say, they appear to be the same wheel.

The ones that I had on my MINI were 17 x 7 with a 42et offset. The wheels have a nice lip, which is about 1 inch. I ran them with 215x45x17 tires.

If you want to see what they look like on a CR MINI, look at my gallery picture. If you'll click on the picture, it should blow it up to a large picture and you can see the details of the wheel.

I really like the wheels, but opted to sell them to one of our club members in order to take my MINI in a more racy direction.

I think they would look awesome on your color of MINI.

I have these on my 2014 Chevy Sonic they look really good on the car BUT I've had them on the car 8 month and there pitting already so no I will never buy another set of drag wheels. I should not have to take them off in the winter to protect the finish their warranty does not cover road salt. They are inferior product and should last longer then 8 month. I would post a picture there's no link for that.
