The bolt pattern hasnt changed for MINI all factory wheels should work with every year. Not sure if it's changing for '07 but up until now it's been 4X100

I thought the diameter of the stud had changed at one time.

Yep..... bolt pattern has remained the same.  4x100

Lug bolt diameter and thread pitch has changed, since 7/06 I think.
BMW changed from a 12MM x 1.5 to a 14mm x 1.25.

Texas Speedwerks is the only company with a conversion kit, that I know of.  If you read through thier site they explain in detail about about the science behind how the wheel stays put to the rotor.  It's not what you think.   :?

To answer your question Jack,  if your 06 was produced BEFORE July, they SHOULD fit!

Clear as mud I'd say.

I think so far, all of the stock wheels fit either the 12mm or 14mm bolts.   I think the stock holes are 16mm in diameter.  I measured one of the 15" "holies", and they'll fit either size.

Riqui's car and mine both have the "Webspoke" wheels, and hers has the 12mm bolts, while mine has the 14mm bolts.
