Mini Rims - Overview

Stylish dynamics for the iconic compact sports car

Mini, as a BMW Group Brand, stands for unique Design, agile driving dynamics and urban lifestyle. From the classic Mini 3-door, to the more spacious 5-door, the Convertible, the sporty John Cooper Works (JCW) and crossover models such as the Mini Countryman or the fully electric Mini Cooper SE, the brand offers numerous variants. Rims are not just functional components at Mini, but a central stylistic element that contributes significantly to the personality and sportiness of the vehicles.

Original Mini Rims

Mini offers a wide selection of original alloy wheels, which have been specially developed for the brand's various models. They are characterised by high build quality, precise fit and stylish design. The Rims are not only visually striking, but also designed to optimise weight distribution and performance. The John Cooper Works models in particular utilise sporty, dynamic Rims with reduced weight and increased stability.

Original Mini Rims are available in various finishes:

• Silver painted - classic, discreet and elegant

• Matt or glossy black - sporty and elegant, particularly popular with JCW models

• Anthracite or graphite - for a modern, high-contrast look

• Bi-colour designs - with glossy or diamond-cut surfaces that underline the typical Mini character

Some Rims are available in the so-called ‘MINI Yours’ programme and offer exclusive designs and surfaces that are perfectly matched to the vehicle paintwork and equipment.

Alloy rims from other manufacturers for Mini vehicles

In addition to the original rims, there are numerous high-quality Alloy rims from renowned third-party suppliers that are specially tailored to the technical requirements of the Mini models. The best-known brands include:

• OZ Racing - particularly lightweight, motorsport-inspired Rims for JCW models

• Borbet - designs suitable for everyday use yet stylish

• Ronal - classic Rims with high manufacturing quality and a timeless look

• AEZ and DOTZ - striking wheel designs for individual accents

• Alutec - sporty, modern Rims in different colour variants

These accessory rims are available in numerous Painting options such as matt, glossy or polished and meet all requirements in terms of load capacity, TPMS compatibility and registration.

Common inch sizes and offsets of Mini Rims

The Rim size of Mini vehicles varies depending on the model and design. Typical Inch sizes are:

• 15 inch to 17 inch Rims: for Mini 3-door, 5-door and Convertible

• 17 inch to 19 inch Rims: for sportier variants and JCW models

• 18 inch to 20 inch Rims: for Mini Countryman and Clubman

The offsets (ET) are usually between ET 35 and ET 54, depending on the model, Rim width and desired wheel arch filling. A lower offset can lead to a wider track and a more dynamic look, especially with sportier setups or tuning Rims.

Design variants of the Mini Rims

The designs of Mini Rims are extremely diverse and range from classic to extravagant:

• Double-spoke Rims: sporty and modern, very popular on All models

• Y-spoke Rims: elegant and filigree, suitable for stylish designs

• V-spoke Rims: striking and powerful, particularly suitable for SUVs such as the Countryman

• Rotor designs: dynamic and eye-catching, inspired by motorsport

• Multi-spoke Rims: stylish and uniform, ideal for upmarket equipment

With the right Rim, you can emphasise the look, handling and individuality of any Mini model - urban, sporty or elegant.
