With everyone telling you to choose the rears I think you know what to do... the opposite haha.. They both look nice, but the Ultraleggeras are played out IMO...

What did you go with finally?

I also feel the multi spoke is played out, so much so, I'm going for something I've never seen on a Mini before, so I'll be selling my OZ's in the near future. That being said you know my vote is for the fronts..... they are different and still look good, to me a Mini is all about being different!

The multi's are a PITA to clean and it rains here a lot!

Dave they look great!!!! I am going to go to the same rim on my car. Will post the pics when finished. BTW what size rim and tire did you go with?
I'm going with 17x7s, with a 215/45/17 on mine. Was told that even when I lower my car, that combo will work. I hope LOL. Any way looks great.
