Demon tweeks,(nick) quoted £570.86 over phone.
Thought she could stick to 17" and just change tyres over, plus no insurance increase as long as you don't go bigger.
Mark at rimstock (who make the wheels I think) says they are genuine, and the company are part of Turriff Tyres. Rimstock only sell the track version with proper bores and not plastic rings.

go for it they will look sweet on a mini

I have just ordered them.
A friend has escalated the sidewalk at 40 mph without braking them.
They are fairly light, and relatively cheap.

if there genuine then you'll have no issues. there probably the most popular lightweight wheel out there.
