>>You can do a 5 lug conversion. There are people running Porsche wheels on the MINI, so don't be too quick to cry fakery.


to convert to a 5lug requires an adapter, usually the adapter is 5mm thick, so the offset on that tire, even if it was a 48 +5 makes a 43 offset.. it's gonna stick out, usually 20in tires are like 20X8 atleast
