    What would be the fun in not making you wait just a little a bit.

    Another side note update.
    I spend the last 3 days battling the lady's R53 Mini Cooper. I got her coilovers for christmas and on saturday she asked if we could put them on. I said sure thinking it would not be that bad.

    I was wrong.

    Snapped the driver side pinch bolt the second I put force on it to lossen it. This is really common I came to find out and just about anyone who has tried to swap out struts has had this issue. Tried all day saturday to get the bolt out but nothing would do the trick. Finally just said I would buy a new knuckle. Sunday I got the knuckle out and got the coilovers ready to go in. Monday went to work for half the day then went to a junk yard about 45 mins away to get a new knuckle. $60 later I had a new knuckle and rushed home and got the car all together. Went to put the wheel on... tire was hitting the soring of the coilover. Rushed to Autozone and just bought some cheap 6mm spacers until I can order her some nice 10-15mm spacers.
    but the car is back on the road now with the front coilovers in. Waiting for MINI to get in new lower strut mount bolts and washers in so I can get the rears in.

    It was also priceless hearing Jess Scrape the belly pan for the first time on out way home dinner.

    OH no. I'm not a big fan of their wheels or most newer wheel companies.
    Still 3pc and a more classic wheel as far as MK3's.

    I sold the RS's last Friday and shipped them out Saturday morning. Sad to see them go but it was time for something different and something larger.

    New wheels have been bought and will be heading my way by the weekend. 16's this time and a wheel I have never owned.
