i think it is 15''
why to use 16'' when they have the gravel 15'' ones?
Thanks all, I've only seen them available in 15x7: ATS Motorsport RG - Rallye Gravel Wheel c/- Demon Tweaks.

And ATS is already looking forward to yet more successes during the course of next year's season. Together with the English motor racing forger Prodrive, ATS is getting ready to join the FIA rally world championship. ATS already designed and built exclusive special alloy wheels for the Mini WRC which is making its debut in 2011. The new developments are also set to take centre stage at the Essen Motor Show. It is hoped that the RG Racing Gravel in 7.0 x 15 inches, as well as the RT Racing Tarmac in 8.0 x 18 inches will smooth the brand new Mini WRC's path along the world's rallying tracks to its first winning accolades.
Will post it here also for the member who're only following WRC:

According to this article Prodrive has put some innovation into the Mini rollcages.

I hope Meeke's testing accidents do not become a trend for the rest of this season. I hope his confidence is not damaged.
He's used on offs.
Dani Sordo about Minis power....
"In Finland, it is not so bad," said Sordo časopisu British Autosport. "But for the next company in Germany, where many branches, it is very important. We have to make some changes, but I'm not sure whether this occurs before end of the season - it seems that BMW is now concentrating on the DTM. "
Google PYeklada
uh oh. I hope he's wrong about this. It kind of sounds a bit like sour grapes as he may not have the car as he likes it.Quote:

Sounds like a right miserable chap these past few years. Still not sure what Mini see in the lad.
The only thing he appears good at is being slower than his teammate.
+1 lmao how many years has it been since his last win at any level anyway???
I am hoping next year Mini picks up an Atko or a 1 of the finns competing in mini at this years NORF.
But serioursly, I read that Mini/Prodrive had more than enough lucre to make a very competitive car.
Is it possible that BMW may cut funding before Mini has even really started in the WRC?
Meeke drove Sardinia last year in IRC, Sordo didn't. Meeke DNF, Sordo finished.Quote:

He hasn't demonstrated a level of talent at this point to justify his position as moaner and chief of the wrc.
Bang in some results dani, and you can moan all you want.
At least meeke looks like a guy with potential.
it wasn't Meeke's fault he didn't finish. Besides that Sordo drove Sardegna many more times than Kris...Quote:

Well Meeke was in the top 3 in the debut of his car. Also he has higher public profile than Sordo as he has won an IRC title and is in a game.
Why do you not like Meeke? Always very negative about him.Quote:

Yeah, McRae never did that. :\Quote:

On the other hand, so did Subaru/Prodrive?
Good point. I am going with what I've rad and heard from Dave Richard in interviews and he seems to think they will be find. I was just a bit worried by some recent comments by Sordo and I want to have some reassurance that this won't be underfunded.Quote:

did anyone else notice there are BP stickers on the cars now. I hope that adds a little something to the bank balance for prodrive.
Campana will doing Rally de France in the Mini WRC because Bengue will do his job like always for Ogier as a oevreur.
I see Sordo's getting the excuses in early now.
What's with the Drive-Pro banner? It has the same logo as Prodrive but what is different since it doesn't run under "Prodrive". Anybody knows?Quote:

I must have mixed you up with someone else cause last time i checked you called him a pussylicker. Strange.Quote:

That's really necessary. I saw the car live for the first time now and it definitely is down on power.
So Sordo was not so wrong after all.
what gave you that impression?Quote:
