I *think* those are cosmic wheels. Rather unusual, but not sure if they could be classified as rare.....

What are the words and numbers on them?
They might turn out to be RARE!

I do not have any impression seeing COSMIC on the wheels.

No worries will get a up close image of the wheels tomorrow.

Thanks guys!

btw i found this site (showing a vast range of wheels) while searching for cosmic wheels.

http://www.mini-mayfair.net/13.html and i chanced upon MAG Product, 5.5x13" and i recalled seeing MAG on mine.

which is similar to mine. but instead it is a 13" wheel. Damn i wish i had the 13" and i can fit it on MINTY.

So are these MAG wheels rare?

Sorry, no idea. Maybe better to ask on a Mini forum?

They are rare then! I cant say I have seen them before, but I think they could look brilliant on a mini. I quite like them - I already have a few set of unusual mini alloys!

they should physically fit, but you will accellerate to 50ish quite quickly and stop there. you are unlikely to find tyres with a useful size!
