Hi,

I was looking around on minisport.com and I noticed they had some 13x7 Revolution Black Modular Wheels now ! I know DougieMC has fitted these in 13x8 and everything's custom about his mini so I am very happy they are now also available in 13x7 (so they can fit under most wheel arches). Anyone has a picture of these fitted on a mini ?



Kind regards from Belgium

I don't understand the idea of putting fake splits on a car, atleast get the real deal!

[Driezzie]

ow they are not ? Thought they were 2 piece.

they are real modular 2 piece rims. at least get a clue!

[JustSteve]

Oh sorry, I read on here that they weren't... Apologies then!

Personally I'd still go for the 'normal' ones, but its your mini and your choice!

Yes indeed I think they are not fake. On their website you can see they also have different other sizes on demand. Useful for people who like to paint the center in a different color without all the trouble or who want to change the lip in a different size after a while.

I'm a huge fan of Force Racing wheels in 10inch but now these are on the market and I'm in doubt . They are also cheaper so. You can't compare a 10 inch wheel with a 13 inch wheel I know but still..

Ok scrap that... We were wrong.

Minisport emailed me back, they are fake split rims .

[JustSteve]

HA! I felt like such a dick too

thought they looked one-peice

So yea, either get normal revo's or force racing splits IMO, either are lush!

That is correct.


If you look closely and compare them with the real modular ones on the official Revolution website you'll see that they have fewer "nuts" and an inscription. Those real ones will be more expensive and are for custom order.
