New to me anyway. RIAL Campo 656K1 with full polish. And yes, those are RunFlats. ( Now you guys be nice, I happen to like them. If you have any newer RFs you wish to sell, just holler.

I really like the original equipment R84 X-Lites, but one had a pretty significant dent in the inner bead (I beat it back mostly with ballpeen hammers) and another had some curb rash. The other two are perfect. Seems the previous owner had some issues. I'll probably end up selling two or three of them.
Anyways, I looked and looked for some newer R84s with RFs that were takeoffs but none were to found. But I did find these RIALs with like new Dunlop RFs.
The inner bore of the wheel is 63.3cm whilst the outer diameter of the MINI hub is 56.1cm. I mounted the wheels just with the lugbolts, but even at 15 mph there was a shimmy.
Took the wheels off.
Which was good because I needed to go on 700 mile round trip on Saturday. So I used the old wheels and tires.
Talked to everyone's friend at TireRack, Alex, and he prescribed some hub-centric rings at a buck fifty each.
You just can't go wrong conferring with Alex.
Three days later (there was a Sunday in there) they arrived (today), mounted the wheels with the rings (just a little while ago) and took it for a spin. Nice. Very nice. My son, the Z3 owner, says "sweet".
I agree.
