A cut above the rest, these tyres are perfectly tailored to get the best out of each individual MINI model and your style of driving. Get the right tyres for the season and get the optimal grip for the terrain you’re driving on. With our star-marked tyres from leading manufacturers you will always feel safe on the road. All wheels are delivered mounted, balanced, and ready-to-use.
MINI Winter Complete Wheels offer the best possible performance and safety.
Braking distance with tread depth (mm) in wet conditions.
All MINI Original Wheels and Tyres are specially developed for that go-kart feeling and to match the style of each individual MINI model.
Each tyre has passed stringent testing with up to 50 different quality criteria (EU Tyre Label demands compliance with only three criteria).
The tyres are perfectly attuned to suspension components and adaptive systems for maximum grip and performance.
Tyres with star marking feature high durability, top safety ratings and state-of-the-art run-flat technology.
The systematic use of special materials reduces fuel consumption and lowers noise levels.
Run-flat technology allows you to keep driving your vehicle for up to 80 km at a maximum speed of 80 km/h straight ahead even if tyres depressurise. That means safety and comfort for you too. It also means you don't need a spare wheel as you can simply drive to your next MINI Service. This means less vehicle weight and more room for luggage and sports equipment.
In the unfortunate event your tyres are damaged, either accidentally or deliberately, MINI Tyre Insurance can help towards the unexpected cost of repair or replacement, regardless of your vehicle age.
The MINI Tyre Insurance offers comprehensive protection against:
MINI Tyre Insurance provides 100% reimbursement of tyre costs for damage in the first year, 75% in the second year and 50% in the third year.*
*MINI Tyre Insurance is valid for all star-marked tyres and complete wheels bought at your MINI Service Centre. In addition, the MINI Tyre insurance is valid for all originally equipped tyres mounted on the car purchased at MINI and registered from March 2020 on. Rims and labour costs are excluded. For further information on MINI Tyre Insurance please contact your MINI Service Partner or check your insurance terms and conditions. MINI Tyre Insurance is a product of Allianz Versicherungs-AG.
We do not want to reinvent the wheel, but rather bring it to perfection. This spirit is vivid in each Original MINI Wheel. Each wheel is a reflection of our high demands on durability and limits of dynamic, static and simulation testing that goes far beyond legal requirements. The result is a high-quality wheel that you can rely on in every situation – elegant in style, uncompromising in substance.
Original MINI Wheels are cast from molten aluminium. The liquid metal is filled into a mold where it cools before it is removed, strictly monitored by the latest computer technology which guarantees the high quality of our wheels. This casting process reduces costs and allows a high degree of precision and freedom of design. Cast wheels are low in weight and high in stiffness.
In the forging process, the wheel is forged from the solid piece of aluminum. The 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.
Cylindrical flow forming is a pressure forming process. While spinning, pressure is applied to the inner barrel of the cast wheel. This process stretches and compresses the aluminum, which increases tensile strength and makes it possible to achieve particularly low wall thicknesses for the rim. The result is a very light-weight and strong wheel with significant benefits In terms of shock resistance, elongation and load capacity.
This method can also be used for both forged and cast wheels. Here, non-structurally relevant mass on the wheel is reduced by machining of material from the spokes. This further reduces the wheel weight and creates premium styling effects as undercutting between the spoke connection and the well base gives the rim styling a three-dimensional appearance.
Regardless of which manufacturing technologies are used, the surfaces of Original MINI Light Alloy Wheels can be finished in a variety of ways. The basic method – powder coating – makes the wheel resistant to environmental factors such as corrosive de-icing salt. In the past, light alloy wheels were often painted silver with a clear lacquer coating. Today, the BMW portfolio includes numerous designs and refinements that require an elaborate finishing process.
Original MINI Light-Alloy Wheels are fitted with innovative tyres andfeature integral noise dampening for excellent acoustic comfort. A layer of foam on the tyre’s inner surface absorbs the noise produced by vibrations within the tyre’s cavity, which is filled with air causing it to act as a resonator. This leads to a substantial reduction in the level of tyre noise reaching the cabin.
Aerodynamically optimized light-alloy wheels contribute to the lightweight construction and reduce air resistance, further adding to the efficiency of your MINI. Their mostly enclosed surfaces bring about an effective reduction in the amount of air turbulence produced around the wheels. The Air Performance Wheels help to reduce drag in a very innovative way and unite optimised aerodynamic properties with a sophisticated sense of sporty elegance.
Our MINI Service Specialists advise you on the ideal choice of wheels and MINI star marked tyres for your vehicle. Only these tyres comply with MINI’s strict quality standards. It goes without saying that we also change, test, service and store your wheels. Whether you are looking for a spare tyre or a complete wheel set, MINI Wheel and Tyre Service always offers first-class products and professional advice. Give your vehicle the tender loving care it deserves. Treat it to a MINI Service at a MINI Service Centre.
