Buy wheels, set them for summer, buy wife's birthday present, buy power later (as it's available whenever)

If you get the wheels, the summer tires will probably help overall performance more than the power upgrade

What you get with the JCW Kit... (not me, someone else posted these that did it)






And still no decisions yet, the dude with the wheels has someone local interested in them but he having a hard time coming up with the money to pay for it, so i'll know soon if the wheels are still available or not.

You could always wait for just a set of wheels only though, that way you can get the tires of your choice and not have to swap all the time.

get the wheels! the mini cooper isn't exactly a beast on the road performance wise, so i wouldnt upgrade performance unless you were getting major gains!

im either all go, no show...but in this case in a car i would never buy because <200HP, get wheels!
