          IIRC he used hubcentric rings, and they went on fine.

            I almost bought a set, the centerbore is too small, but spacers can be made.

              Hubcentric spacer, with mini centerbore on wheel side.

                or get them drilled out. I got a set of wheels drilled from 54mm to 57.1mm for $70 at a machine shop. :D

                    YAh... just drill em if there is room.

                    I heard a handfile works best if you wanna r3v it.

                        Exactly. Any competent machine shop can bore them out to the correct hub bore.

                        And that first pic is one of the worst photoshops I've ever seen.

                          word. oval wheels are good on the track though.

                              The original Photoshop rims are horribly ugly, but there are some good looking Mini rims. If you got an aftermarket set with a larger centerbore you could fit them with hubcentric rings, but OEM Mini rims have a centerbore smaller than E30s. As mentioned before, boring them out or using step down spacers would work.
