I had some 10 inch banded steels and they did look the nuts. If I was going for 12 inch banded steels I would try and find a set of Hilman IMP wheels. There are 12 inch, correct pcd for a mini and you can get chrome hub caps that fit on. A great alternative if you can't run 10s.

My choice was the 12" steelies that came on the MIni City originally and have them banded. Then i will try to fit the chrome hub cap from the 10" mini wheels.
Only time will tell if i will be able or not :)

I'm going for 12" banded steels, because I need a little more rubber. Currently running 13x8 with rock hard suspension and tyre stretch. Isn't working out so great for my panel seams. 

Do you have any pictures of it?

Those should look really good, not many 12 inch wheels have that much dish so should look different from the norm!
