Any Photos of JCW 18" Double Spoke Wheels?

Aloha From Hawaii,
I was hoping to check out a couple of photos of the JCW 18" double spoke wheels sets if you have them installed. I am thinking about getting them. Any comments on them as well?
Mahalo Nui Loa!

Well, there's always the pic from MINI2... you did mean the R105, right?



But I'm partial to the older R95 model (aka spider-spoke or star-spoke), which is why I have them:



And there's actually a new "composite" double-spoke coming out soon, which is a two-piece wheel and actually looks very different from the R105 (but yet is still called double-spoke? strange).

What color is your car. That makes a big difference. Once I get Casper cleaned up....it has been raining cats and dogs, I can send you a pic. As you can guess Casper is pepper white.

I am getting a dark silver S. I think (hope) that it is going to be here in the next couple of weeks. Not only does it have to cross the Atlantic, go though the Panama Canal, it has to cross the Pacific as well. It's tearing me up. But, I really like those R105's in the pic that Edge posted. Does anyone have pic with them on a dark silver?

Not bad considering running on JCW suspension & much better since loosing run-flats.
