Forged Wheel Designs for the Mini Paceman

Every design below is forged to order, so it can be machined to the Mini Paceman's 5x120 bolt pattern and 72.6 mm center bore, with the width and offset calculated for your setup.

How to Read Wheel Offset & Measurements

Use these two references before ordering: the left diagram shows where each spec (PCD, center bore, offset, width and diameter) is measured on the wheel; the right diagram shows how positive, zero and negative offset shift the wheel face relative to the hub centerline.

ANKUSI Engineering Expert Advice

The Mini Paceman's factory suspension tuning already accounts for a specific unsprung mass target. Forged construction lets ANKUSI match the factory strength spec while keeping rotational weight down, which is where the real handling benefit comes from on a taller, heavier SUV platform.

The Mini Paceman runs a 5x120 bolt pattern, 72.6mm center bore, and a 16x6.5J at ET41, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 18x8J ET38, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Mini Paceman. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 19x8.5J ET35 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.

Mini Paceman OE Wheel Specs

The 2015 Mini Paceman (Crossover Coupe) uses a 5x120 bolt pattern with a 72.6mm center bore. Factory wheels are 16x6.5J at ET41.

Why the factory spec works for most owners:

  • Supports the vehicle's curb weight and load capacity
  • Preserves ground clearance for everyday and light off-road use
  • Balances ride comfort with cargo and passenger stability
  • Maintains clearance for the factory suspension travel and brake package

ANKUSI builds these wheels — we are the forging factory, not a reseller. For the Mini Paceman (2015) we drill the 5x120 pattern and cut the centre bore to 72.6mm on our own CNC line, so the wheel hub-centres on the car with no spacer rings, in whatever diameter, width and offset you specify.

Flush Fitment

For a flush look with minimal rubbing, 18x8J ET38 is the recommended starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Mini Paceman.

Maximum Aggressive Fitment

19x8.5J ET35 is a more aggressive reference setup. Beyond this, expect rubbing under compression without fender rolling or camber correction.

Real-World Fitment Notes

Eibach Pro-Kit springs; 18x8.0J ET38 BBS SR wheels; standard brakes; Continental CrossContact 225/45 R18 tires. Note: Three-door coupe crossover variant of the first-gen Countryman.

Offset & Backspacing Reference

Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):

  • OE: 16x6.5J ET41 → ~5.36″ backspacing
  • Flush: 18x8J ET38 → ~6.0″ backspacing
  • Max: 19x8.5J ET35 → ~6.13″ backspacing

A Note on Clearance

Final clearance depends on the exact tire model, suspension height, brake package, alignment and vehicle tolerances. A physical test fit is recommended before production.

Want to check a different width or offset before you order? Use our Offset & Backspacing Calculator to solve the numbers yourself, or looking for your exact Mini spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Mini Paceman? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.

Vehicles With the Same Hub as the Mini Paceman (5x120, 72.6 mm Bore)

In our database, 338 other vehicle entries from 10 makes use exactly the same 5x120 bolt pattern and 72.6 mm center bore. Factory wheels from these cars bolt on and center on the hub without rings; offset and width still have to be checked.

5x120 is used by 10.3% of the vehicle pages in our English fitment guide (670 of 6,503); 50.6% of those also use a 72.6 mm center bore.

Hub-Centric Rings for a 72.6 mm Center Bore

A wheel with a center bore larger than 72.6 mm needs a hub-centric ring. The most common combinations:

Wheel boreRing size
73.1 mm73.1 → 72.6 mm
74.1 mm74.1 → 72.6 mm
76.1 mm76.1 → 72.6 mm
78.1 mm78.1 → 72.6 mm

ANKUSI forged wheels are bored to exactly 72.6 mm for this vehicle, so no ring is needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What bolt pattern (PCD) does the Mini Paceman use?
The 2015 Mini Paceman uses a 5x120 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Mini Paceman use?
The Mini Paceman uses a 5-lug bolt pattern (5x120), so you need a 5-lug forged wheel to bolt straight on.
What is the center bore size on the Mini Paceman?
The Mini Paceman's center bore is 72.6mm. If an aftermarket wheel has a larger center bore than this, hub-centric rings are recommended so the wheel centers on the hub itself rather than relying on the lug bolts alone.
What size are the factory (stock) wheels on the Mini Paceman?
Factory wheels on the Mini Paceman are 16x6.5J at ET41.
What is the biggest wheel size I can fit on my Mini Paceman without rubbing?
The most aggressive fitment we recommend without fender work is 19x8.5J at ET35 offset. Going beyond this typically causes rubbing under compression unless you roll the fenders or add camber correction.
What does a flush wheel fitment look like on the Mini Paceman?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend 18x8J at ET38 offset as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Mini Paceman.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Mini Paceman?
No. ANKUSI forges each wheel to your exact target offset, including the flush or max specs above, so you get the correct fitment without stacking spacers. Spacers are typically only used to push out an existing OE-offset wheel without replacing it, which isn't necessary when you're ordering a custom-offset forged wheel.
How do I calculate wheel backspacing for my Mini Paceman?
Backspacing (in inches) = wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance). For example, the flush spec above works out to roughly 6" of backspacing.
What's the difference between wheel offset and backspacing?
Offset is the distance in millimeters from the wheel's true centerline to its mounting face (positive offset pulls the wheel in, negative pushes it out). Backspacing is the distance in inches from the mounting face to the back edge of the wheel barrel. They describe the same fitment from two different reference points, which is why ANKUSI lists both above — some shops and tuning guides quote offset, others quote backspacing.
Can I run staggered wheels (different sizes front and rear) on my Mini Paceman?
The Mini Paceman runs the same wheel size front and rear from the factory, so staggered fitment is not required. ANKUSI can still forge a staggered set (wider rear) on request if you want a more aggressive stance.
