I like them. But just for the record, this is NOT a very light wheel for 16".

Very light weight wheel at only 19 lbs.

Just an FYI, 15 inch mini cooper wheels from an 03 fits without any mods straight onto my 07, brake caliber clears it without issues

Will these Mini wheels (R100 15x5.5" ET45) fit without any mods? or what mod would be needed? 2007 Yaris HB

Thanks!

Not sure about those, but the R50 wheels I just bought are ball-seat (aka radial-seat), so you may need a new set of lugnuts. Other than that, they should be bolt-on wheels.

Check out the thread below from when I sold my set. Ideally you would like to find a set of hub rings and you definitely need special lugnuts as those particular rims are made to be used with 14mm lug bolts as opposed to 12mm lugnuts:

Where might I find the hub rings and lug nuts. What's the purpose for the rings??

How was the performance?

Thanks

I bought the lug nuts from Jegs. The hubcentric rings I purchased from another person on here, so I am not sure exactly where you might find them.

As for performance, I really didn't feel any difference from stock steelies, but they definitely looked better.

If you're trying to get light mini wheels, try for the ones with the 7 round holes from the R50 mini. They are 12lbs ea. I just got a nice set for $175CAD. Pretty hard to beat that price, and they will work well as winter rims/autoX rims.

Cheers.

Those are the ones I have, except in stock silver. They cut 16lbs of rotating mass which is noticeable. Again, those are a ball-seat nut, so you will need new lug nuts.
Cheers.
