Just got a reply from Paul Cooper, parts supervisor at JCW:

"I'm afraid that there are no plans to produce the JCW wheels in White."

Guess I'll just have to buy the silver wheel caps and paint them white :smile:

That would be the best option! Post some pictures of your wheels with the white JCW caps. :smile:

FInd a powercoat shop and do each wheel for about $40 to 60 each.
Should be good. The price for the JCW wheels is less than that for the 17" R90s!

I don't care about the wheels themselves. I just wanted the wheel caps in white so i can put them on my stock white v-spokes! Just for kicks I asked Long Beach MINI what it would cost to paint all four caps and they said $200. Ouch!
