I would love to buy these wheels; if I could find them!
I took these pictures from pyugala's gallery. Very beautiful MINI I say!
I never knew they made BBS LMs (17 x 7.5) for the Mini Cooper. I would love to purchase these wheels. I read on MINI2 and I believe on here that they are pretty rare and have to be custom ordered. Anyone know from whom I can order these from?
Thanks in advance!

The url you just linked is broken, but if you are talking about the BBS LMs with the Mach Lip you are incorrect. Those wheels have 5 holes (for lack of a better term) rather then the 4 holes the MINI uses.

I called Wheel Warehouse in Anahiem, CA and Shoreline Motoring in Huntington Beach, CA and they both offer the BBS LM wheels for the MINI at a discounted price. I also heard of Wheel Power; I'll give them a call later.
Anyone here know of any more "wheel stores" that carry BBs in the Southern California area?
Thanks again!

BBS LM's pictures at the top of the page can be ordered thru any BBS dealer in the United States.
They are a special order item. Which means they have to be custom built in Japan/Germany and then shipped to BBS USA, which is based in Georgia. It takes about 6 months.
Some dealers may not want to mess with that whole process because if you back out then they are stuck with a real expensive set of wheels..
So, yes you can get them in the US. Cost, it around $650-$700 per wheel. A good price for the finest wheels money can buy..
Someone here may even already have a set on order

* I talked to wheel experts and wheel power. Both said they will get back to me but never did. Other place quoted a 6month wait. I did not want to wait. Ordered through a JDM importer. it was shipped via ocean cargo on the 6th of september and expected to arrive in Mid-Oct. After customs, and shipping within USA, hopefully I should have it by end of Oct.
