Fitting wheels on a Mini Roadster R59

A Mini Roadster R59 (2012–2015) uses a 4x100 PCD and a centre bore of 56.1 mm. Any wheel must match the vehicle's PCD exactly: there is no tolerance, unless you use a PCD adapter.

  • PCD: 4x100 required. See all vehicles with 4x100.
  • Centre bore: the wheel must have a centre bore of 56.1 mm or more. If it is larger (as with most aftermarket wheels), add a hub centric ring wheel centre bore → 56.1 mm.
  • Offset: the original is ET42 to ET48. Compare your future wheel with the offset calculator (your vehicle is already selected) to see how many millimetres further in or out it will sit.
  • Fixings: thread M14x1.25, tightened to 140 Nm. The nuts or bolts must have the same seat (conical, spherical or flat) as the wheel.
  • Tyres: original fitment is 175/65R15, 175/60R16, 195/55R16, 185/50R17. For another size, check the diameter difference with the equivalence calculator (under 3 % recommended).

Frequently asked questions

What is the PCD of a Mini Roadster R59?

A Mini Roadster R59 (2012–2015) has a PCD of 4x100: 4 studs or bolts spaced around a circle 100 mm in diameter.

Does a Mini Roadster R59 need a hub centric ring?

The centre bore (hub diameter) of a Mini Roadster R59 is 56.1 mm. A wheel with a larger centre bore is fitted with a hub centric ring that brings it down to the hub diameter. A wheel with a smaller centre bore cannot be fitted.

What offset (ET) for a Mini Roadster R59?

The recorded original offset is ET42 to ET48 depending on the version and wheel size. A lower ET pushes the wheel outwards, a higher ET pulls it inwards: check wheel well and caliper clearance before making any change.

What tightening torque for the wheels of a Mini Roadster R59?

The specified tightening torque is 140 Nm for M14x1.25 fixings. Tighten in a criss-cross pattern with a torque wrench and check the tightness again after about fifty kilometres.

Which vehicles have the same PCD as a Mini Roadster R59?

With the same PCD (4x100) and the same centre bore (56.1 mm), these include: Mini Coupe, Mini Cooper R57 Cabriolet, Mini Cooper Clubman, Mini Cooper Clubman S. Offset, width and rim diameter still need checking for each vehicle.
