Thanks. I'm actually running the Victory wheels right now with Blizzaks. They look just fine but I'm still so glad I changed out my wheels. Still very happy with the 16s...they look great to me and ride really well over the broken pavement Chicagoland calls roads.

R95's! Bought the car with these on. Was thinking about changing them out, but just going to keep them on.
Don't look at my calipers! They are on my to do list, lol
What's the best pressure to run these? Right now am at 38. These are Westlake tires the PO had installed. When it's time to change them out I'll go with a more performance oriented tire. These feel and look fine, but I think there is better out there.
Just got the Mini about two weeks ago. Had these R95's. Been looking around and these wheels are over $300.00 each new. I think I'll keep them.

Those Mini wheels are made of exotic metals that drive the cost way up... might be made of BMWmium. Keep the wheels, they're in good shape for the years and are 18". I always thought they were 17s.
What's the maximum inflation printed on the tire sidewall? I'd go with the Mini recommended inflation pressure that's usually on the door sticker or the in the manual, but since these tires aren't run-flats, maybe step them back 2-4 psi? I would play with the pressure some and see what feels best. Just never go above the max cold tire inflation that's marked on the tire itself.
Great looking R53. Definitely a fan of Chili Red and White. Awesome find and looks well cared for. How's the interior?

Post up some pics of you R52 JCW and what you're doing to it. Cheers
