Hi guys,
I know I have a South African Clubman but I have these Mini Wheels which did not come standard. The guy at the mini shop back home tried to buy them off me everytime he saw my car, apparently they are very rare... They are called Mistral does anyone know about these at all? Any info would help.

I really want to try find a fifth wheel to replace my rubbish spare so I can have a matching set of five but I want identical! Is it possible to get a wheel made to the exact specifications??

Cheers guys. Attached is a picture, please excuse the horrible paintwork but it will be done at some point..

right place, just guess everyone is stumped. I've heard of the name before, just thought they did 8 spokes... don't sell them!

umm I would think it would be very expensive, maybe try going on ebay but like the different versions from other countries (e.g ebay america, australia) you never know you might find what you want

cheers,

ash,
