WOW that wheel looks gorgeous. But I definitely need to see how it looks on a MINI. This may be on my list of upgrades when it comes time to change the run-flats.

I think those will look badass BUT only if it's slammed.

I've pretty much settled on these wheels but i wont have them on the car until i get the car back to the states. Which won't be until around August. So who is going to be the guinea pig?

Any update on the weight of 17x7's (4x100)? Assuming it's around 15 or less, I'm ready to buy. At 16lbs I may be out on these.

17x7 et38 15.8 lbs - The Et45's should be lighter, but I don't have them in stock yet.

Alex,
Thanks for the weight info. Does this fit the large bbks? Which offset would be better with the bbk, 38 or 45?
Thanks.

Oh Good. I need the et45 since these are for stock class autocross. Any reason that Kumho V710 215/40/17's won't fit on these?

Alex, bumping this thread in hopes that you have information on BBK fitment for this wheel in 17" size. Thanks!

Well, I guess I'll be the guinea pig. I ordered some last night (17x7 45mm offset). Should be here next week. I have an 09 JCW so I have the big brakes. I'll let you guys know if they fit.

Alex should've had time to measure clearance by now, I would think. Hope your brakes fit, Wizeguy9999.

Alex,
Is the 17x7 et 38 wheel a multi-bolt pattern or only in 4x100mm? I am not a fan of multi-bolt pattern.
Tks.

JCW stock brakes = clears with no issues.

I am checking on the Brembo BBK, but stock JCW's are no problem.

can't wait to see actual pics. curiously the 16" PF01 weigh .3 lb more than the RPF1's.
Alex, do the PF01's come with center caps?

i'm planning on running 16's on non-runflats, so i should be ok
while volks and bbs forged would be nice, it's a bit hard to justify the cost
also hate to burst your bubble, but ssr's aren't forged
