Yes, they will fit a Mini but are hugely offset and look shit.

you could have adapters made up to adapt the pcd/offset by your machine shop but this will cost a fair wack lol
steel flip front, fiberglass bonnet with 4 lamp pod and vents, tinted windows, 13"revos, 6point cage, recaros, harnesses, custom abs dash, twin exit exhaust, chrome bumpers, chrome grill,electric blue carpet, group6 arches, clear lights, push button start, flaming cooper laurels on front screen, mini wings logo on rear screen, custom dash clocks from a mg of some sort, and soon to have a car pc and a 998 or 1098 turbo

It also will likely mean you go through wheel bearings at a rate of knots.

Mini and Metro PCD is unique to them as far as I know. Maestro/Montego wheels may fit theoretically, but look shite and probably too big/offset to fit in the radius arms/arches anyway. metro wheels are more inset than minis,so can be used with spacers

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

Mini and Metro PCD is measuered in inches. 4x4" where most are now in mm, so only old bl stuff really, and like vegard said imp. |

why would you wanna put anything other than mini wheels on anyway ? nothing else looks right in my opinion, i have seen em with aftermarket rover wheels 14`s what i seen and they look horrible, bit like chavs putting Venom wheels on nova`s minis should only have mini wheels never exceed 13" just my thoughts....

I doubt I'll be dipping into the 13's like you did though! |

I know you either love them or hate them, but I'd only EVER put Minilight style wheels on a Mini of mine!

I could be tempted with some ATS cups on my mini. Quite big in the vw scene but not seen many on Minis!! Either that or some nice 10" split rims! |

I was looking for all sorts of alternatives but in the end I have to agree with Tom - Minilight style wheels rule. I ended up with some 6x12 deep dish ones. |
