Mini Cooper rims question

[3rdSEman]

I would suggest everybody to not bother ordering centering rings.

56.1-54.1 rings are fragile and break easily (shatter) when fitting wheels.

I have ran different mini wheels so far and have relied on centering feature of standard taper nuts.

One word of caution if you're considering extended tip conical wheel nuts. I believe available tips (extending below the taper) are mostly imperial. Never could find one which would fit (and center) metric bore openings of mini wheels. Thus my use of plain standard taper nuts.

PS: tires fitted are Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3, 500 treadwear, asymetric tread pattern, side-to-side rotation is allowed as they are not directional (permits rotation in a criss-cross fashion).
PS2: true winter tires are a must (and mandatory) in Quebec; these A/S tires are only used during other three seasons.
