Got a Mini... - Page 4 - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

Okay, so kind of a MINI-steamroller update...Decided to push the limit of what fits under a MINI, and went with some new 235/40-17 Star Specs. I know it doesn't sound like much in the Subaru world, but damn it's a tight fit on a MINI. Especially on a 7" wide wheel. Either way...Cory rules and the car has more gripz now!!!!! Behold!!!!!!

Thanks KSpeed

Any chance you're planning on wearing those out at the track day in 2 weeks?

No, I'm going to skip the next track day, maybe run again in the fall... these are for Autocross. ( I still have my 215's for track, I may swap on to my stockers).

I have to have every possible advantage for autocross, 2nd place sux! Besides, I think the evans' bought a MINI cooper
