Default MINI Cooper - Wide Wheels - Pt.2/3

So hopefully by part 3 i'll have coilovers.. need money to replace front tires and power steering pump first.

Anyways I got some Hotchkis springs and camber plates for extremely cheap (180$ total), looks alot better than it did at first. Its very bearable now. I wish the fronts were a little bit lower but its all good.

Oh and iphone camera...

hmm. I just dont se it. but you need to seriously do something about the rear setup on that thing, the way those wheels poke out like that and are sunk in on the front looks bad.,

Ive been thinking about getting some spacers for the fronts because they are a little too sunk in. I really want the coilovers though.

And my bad, I dont know why i wrote 9.5s, theyre 16x9.

looks like shit still, imo. when are you actually going to lower it? you can't be half mexi-flush and half hippo-wheelin when you're 4x4ing it.
