oh sweet! in 18's or 17's? Please post a pic when you get your car
Well my car should be here at the end of next week so I will put the order in soon for the 17's with Yoko Paradas or the AVS ES100, I think. I'm not absolutly positive about the tires yet but I have had good luck with Yoko's in the past.
Thanks for posting your pictures! In my mind this is the best look we've had at the SP10s. And you've got a sharp looking car to show for it!
And as I look at the pictures again, thanks for positioning yourself so that you're essentially imperceptible in the reflection!

Reason: one more thought!
Dang...those look fantastic in 17s!!!! I have 18" Enkei TZ-10, but I'm scared to go with the 18". THese Motegi's look to capture the same look (concave wheel) but in a 17". I think I may have found my next wheel.
I have noticed that the Hyper Black changes color tone depending on the time of day. Bright sunshine you get what I have posted (bright and shiny) and evening or early morning tends to be darker in tonal range.
Oh I LOVE Black Chrome!
They are very sharp looking wheels. Pretty light too. I am glad they have the chrome inner lip on them tho, so I'm not tempted to replace my LC5s
I'm a fan of the 10 spoke wheel ! I run with 18" Enkei J10's in the matte black. I do like the SP10 on Brianbreeze's car but my J10's still do it for me !

SP10's look good. i always wondered what it actually looked
like on a MINI cause each time i select that wheel on tirerack's
interactive page it shows up like a black shadowed mess.

looks good in those picts above.
I agree wholeheartedly. That's why I made the comment about our best look yet at them. In fact, brianbreeze's pictures were a revelation. I like the folks at TireRack a lot; I've bought several sets of tires from them through the years and always found the product and service to be first-rate. But they're not doing themselves, Motegi, or us any good with their interactive picture because, as you say, it bears little resemblance to the real thing (I know it's an attempt to demonstrate the special visual qualities of hyperblack, but still . . . .).
