Wheel options for a Mini

My other half is in the market for a Mini now that she finall got rid of the Integra, she has plans to lower on a nice set of concave alloys but any wheels she likes are all 5 stud. Can ye all please throw in a few sugestions as my head is we'll and truely melted. Pcd adapters are not an option as she dosent want the poke look.

Any help/ideas would be great.

Is it an old mini or the BMW made mini?

Its the newer one shes looking at 02-04

I put gp reps cos I couldn't find oem wheels on my wife's old one cos I thought they were bout the nicest looking wheel
On them without spending mad money!!

RS Reps from Richie in Pro Parts ?
Seen them on a cooper S recently and they looked great. A bitch to keep clean though.

I had a set of those reps on my last car there a cool looking wheel but as you say hard to keep clean...also after about 6 months they start to get a build up of some kind like the studs are corroding looked like lacquer peal or something not quite sure.... it may be possible to clean it off with wheel cleaner but I found it was impossible to remove. .. its annoying if your particular about how they look just thought id let ya know!

I have them currently on my e36 and they're the same! Not kerb'd but not peel either but marked like scrapes and a build up around the studs.

ye I couldn't really figure out what it was on mine paddy obviously some sort of reaction with the metal but they are a cool looking wheel and its only noticeable when you spend each week on your hands and knees scrubbing them I suppose [emoji16][emoji1]

Yeah I think the rs is a nice wheel but she dosent like them. I have the same issue with my bbs lm reps. One of the lads had the same problem so he sanded the lips and used metel polish once a week after to keep them looking fresh, I've been meaning to sand mine but its a pain in the a#se to do.
