AFTERMARKET: MINI Flaunts Floating Hub Caps

MINI cars are easily distinguishable as is, but if you want your little city car to stand out from the other 10 million MINIs out there, these new Original Accessory floating hubcaps will certainly do the trick.

The caps are available in two versions, either with the MINI or John Cooper Works emblem. With their floating design, these hubcaps keep the brand logo in the upright position even when driving.

Floating (aka self-leveling) hubcaps work by using weights to keep the design horizontal. MINI's version adds what it describes as "a flexible connection to the wheel hub extension" to keep its logo steadily readable even when the car is moving at speed.

 These new hubcaps can be purchased from MINI partner subsidiaries and dealerships as well as the online MINI Shop.
