STAR MARKED QUALITY.

MINI Complete Wheels are all fitted exclusively with star marked tyres to guarantee quality and safety assurance. Designed to deliver the best performance from your MINI, they have been developed in close collaboration with leading manufacturers like Michelin, Pirelli and Continental, and are stringently tested to optimise your MINI’s grip on the road. The star emblem on the sidewall is our seal of approval.

WHERE THE WHEEL JOURNEY BEGINS.

We can’t reinvent the wheel. We just want to perfect its production. Our range of wheels reflects MINI’s pioneering spirit, exacting standards and rigorous testing procedures, which go well beyond legal requirements. The result? High-quality, durable wheels you can rely on in any situation. Elegant in style, uncompromising in substance.
MINI Wheels are cast from molten aluminium, which is poured into a mould and cooled before it is removed. The process is closely monitored by latest computer technologies to guarantee the high quality of our wheels. It reduces costs, and allows a high degree of precision and freedom of design. Cast wheels are low in weight and high in stiffness.
A wheel can be forged from a solid piece of aluminum. Alternatively, a high-end option is to mill the entire spoke design after forging the base material. Forged aluminium wheels are 10 to 20 % lighter in weight than aluminium cast wheels and allow a more delicate design of the spokes.
This is a shaping process where pressure is applied to the inner barrel while the cast wheel is spinning. This stretches and compresses the aluminum, which increases tensile strength and makes it possible to achieve particularly low wall thicknesses of the rim. This results in very light-weight and stable wheels with significant benefits in terms of shock resistance, elongation and load capacity.
Wheel mass can be reduced by machining non-structurally critical material from the spokes. Undercutting between the spoke connection and the rim well base can achieve additional premium styling effects for the rims, and give them a 3D appearance.
The surfaces of MINI Light Alloy Wheels are finished in a variety of elaborate ways to achieve special designs and refinements. Powder coating makes the wheel resistant to environmental factors such as corrosive de-icing salt.

MINI TYRE MOBILITY SET.

The indispensable MINI tyre mobility set contains a compact, high-performance pump/compressor and special tyre sealant to enable small punctures to be quickly and easily patched up. Irrespective of tyre size, the tread can be repaired to a depth of up to 4 mm. The set comes in a practical bag and includes gloves plus a range of valve adapters, which can also be used with bicycle tyres, balls and air mattresses.

WHEEL & TYRE ACCESSORIES.

Discover our range of accessories that help maintain the value of your MINI by protecting your wheels and tyres from dirt and moisture as well as add stylish finishing touches.

MINI FLOATING HUB CAP.

The innovative MINI Floating Hub Caps don’t turn with the wheel. This means the MINI logo remains horizontal while driving and adds a special finishing touch to the look of your MINI Light Alloy Wheels. They also protect the wheel hubs against dirt and damage.

MINI JCW FLOATING HUB CAP.

Add a premium touch to your wheels with JCW Floating Hub Caps. Apart from protecting the hubs from dirt and moisture, the logo stays level when driving, providing a subtle, high-end visual detail. They fit wheels with a hole-circle diameter of 112 mm perfectly.

MINI VALVE CAPS IN BLACK WITH LOGO.  

The high-quality, aluminium MINI Valve Caps protect aluminium tyre pressure valves effectively from dirt and moisture. Boasting the MINI logo, they set a stylish visual accent on the tyre. The set consists of four valve caps.

RUN-FLAT TECHNOLOGY.

Run-flat technology enables you to continue driving your MINI with a puncture at speeds of up to 80 km/h. The reinforced side walls are made of a heat-resistant rubber, while special rim geometry stops the depressurised tyre from slipping off, even on bends. This reduces the risk of accidents as you don’t need to stop on a dangerous hard shoulder, but simply head to the next service partner.

HOW WHEELS CAN CHANGE THE RANGE.


The size and design of the wheels can have a significant impact on the range of your electric MINI. Larger alloy wheels may look the part, but they tend to be heavier, less aerodynamic and are combined with harder tyres, which reduces overall efficiency. Here, we explain some technical reasons for this – and how aero wheels or wheel covers can help make up some of the lost range.

ROLLING RESISTANCE.

One value shown on an EU tyre label is fuel efficiency. This is closely linked to rolling resistance. The higher the rolling resistance, the more energy your MINI needs to overcome it – which means lower efficiency and range. An EU tyre label grades from A to E, with A being the best in terms of efficiency. 


Proper tyre inflation is crucial. Underinflated tyres increase rolling resistance, leading to higher energy consumption. Your Tyre Pressure Monitor will always give you an accurate tyre pressure reading in your MINI. Simply select "My MINI" > "Vehicle status" > "Tyre Pressure Monitor". It’s also worth noting that larger, wider tyres generally have greater road contact, resulting in higher rolling resistance.

AERODYNAMICS.

Aerodynamically optimised, MINI Light Alloy Wheels contribute to the lightweight construction and reduce air resistance. Their smooth surfaces are mostly enclosed, which effectively reduces the amount of air turbulence and drag produced around the wheels to increase the efficiency of your MINI. They look fantastic, too, uniting their innovative aerodynamic properties with a sophisticated, sporty elegance.

ROTATIONAL MASS.

Heavier wheels require more energy to rotate, especially during acceleration. As EVs regenerate energy under braking, heavier wheels can also slightly reduce the efficiency of regenerative braking, limiting how much power gets fed back into the battery.

EU TYRE LABEL.

The EU tyre label provides objective, reliable and comparable information with regards to fuel efficiency (rolling resistance), wet grip and external rolling noise. It also shows a tyre's suitability for severe snow conditions and its grip in icy conditions.

FAQs.

If you change just one single tyre on your front- or rear-wheel-drive MINI, make sure that the difference in tread depth between the new tyre and the other tyre on the same axle is no more than 2 mm. If you drive a MINI ALL4, all four tyres must be replaced at the same time to avoid damage to the transfer box.
As a MINI Service Inclusive customer, you are entitled to all services contained in the respective package – without any extra costs. This is valid for the agreed contract period or until you have covered the mileage specified in your contract (whichever is reached first). And because it is transferable to the new owner, the package maximises the resale value of your car.

By investing in Genuine MINI Accessories, you are maintaining the safety, functionality and durability of your MINI. Their high quality and precise fit make them exceptionally reliable and long-lasting. This way, you will retain the value of your MINI and the pleasure of driving it for a long time to come.

Correct tyre pressure determines the service life of the tyres, driving safety, ride comfort and also efficiency. This is why we recommend checking the tyre pressure and adjusting it as necessary at least twice a month, and before setting off on a lengthy journey. You should do this even if the tyre pressure of your vehicle is monitored electronically. If your vehicle has an emergency spare wheel, please check this at the same time. The tyre pressure figures refer to cold tyres or tyres that are at the same temperature as the surroundings.

The MINI rim cleaner effortlessly removes stubborn dirt marks such as burnt-on brake dust or oil and rubber residues. A colour indicator makes it easier to check the efficacy of the acid-free special cleaner. The product is suitable for all MINI light alloy wheels.
