Need a clear answer about S-lites on 2010 convert

Will 04 S-lites fit on a 2010 MCSc ? Hey everyone. I am not new here but its been a while. I sold my 2004 JCW and went to the dark side (09 STI) but thru an engagement I am back into a 2010 PW Convert.

So I had an old set of my S-lites powder coated Satin Black and I did a search but couldn't find the right answer. Any help would be great!!!

Oh and the STI is gone.....replaced with 2010 Z56 PPV Tahoe (Police Pkg)

No....the lug diameter is larger on the newer MINI's.

You could see if a shop would drill them out.

Yes, they will fit. All MINI wheels fit on all MINIs assuming they are big enough to clear the brakes (and excluding Countryman).

For instance, I have used R53 X-lites on my '09 R56... Bolt right up... Used them at Sebring.

Are you using the stock lug bolts or have you gone to studs?

The lug bolts from the R56 will fit the s-lites wheels. Eddie has them on his R56. No drilling.

I have s lites from an 05' MCS..on my 07 justa, ...and my 14mm lug bolts work just fine, ..no drilling or modifying in any way.

..I've see a few more here on NAM that have done the same.
