Team Dynamics Wheels
I want to replace my stock MCS wheels with a set of 18" (7.5" wide) Team Dynamic Pro 1.2 wheels (flat black). They seem to be the only alternative to the JCW 18" black wheel (a LOT cheaper). A couple of questions though:
1) They seem to be made for "track" use. Any problem using them for the street?
2) They seem to come only in a 30 or 32 offset. I think the MCS needs about 42 for this size. Any thoughts?
Thanks...

2 - 30-32 are agressive for Mini, complications are based on tire size. Those "sound" like Miata wheels. 37-45 is ideal for Mini.

They should be fine for the street, But for any light weight wheel, just watch out for pot holes.
This from the outmotoring site. It seems like they have more offset options than you think, just nothing listed as a 7.5" width.
8.0 x 18 from 19.8lbs e+11/15/20/25/30/35/40/45/50
9.0 x 18 from 24.2lbs e+15/20/25/30/35

Such a large offset (a small number meaning they stick out more) could be required if the rim is really 8" wide. I've seen tires touch suspension parts on the Mini if the wheel is too wide and the et is closer to stock (45). I run an effective et of 37 with my 18x7.5 wheels. Everything is very close (including the 2mm gap to the brake calipers ).

I have these wheels and bought the suggested size which was 17"x 7" wheel w/ a 45mm offset. I put 225/45/17 tires on and love it, It looks great. I bought them from outmotoring. It seems like they are the only one that carry that size on the internet. Also it took about 5 weeks to get them.
