OZ Superleggeras, Should I????

I am thinking about picking up a set of 16x7 et 37 OZ superleggera's in anthracite to put on my Dark Silver and Black cooper S. What do you guys think? Should i do it? Will they rub? Who else has them and what do they look like on a Mini? I had them in 17" and they looked awesome.

Thanks

I have the silver OZ's on my GP and I love them!! Only 17# each and they are running my Dunlop snows right now! Alex @ Tire Rack will know if they can fit your MINI.

the super and ultraleggeras are amazing looking wheels. almost all the speedvision cup cars at mid ohio last time were running them.

One problem i see, is that every mini i see has em. They are becomming less of a rarity and more of commonplace.

Just curious why you're thinking of 16s instead of 17s. But to answer your question, YEAH, I think the anthracite ones would look cool with your DS/B. You shouldn't have any fit problems with a 16x7.

I use some of the supers as track wheels. I don't think they make them anymore. I could be wrong. I think they only make the ultras now. Just in case do yourself a favor and get 6 of them.
