Known for its go-kart-like handling, the Gen 1 MINI (2001-2006) is one of our long-time favorites, and we're not alone. There's no shortage of MINI driving fanatics, and that includes our engineers who've been happily producing new parts for these cars for over a decade—and they're not about to stop now.
Many Gen 1 MINI enthusiasts have lowered their cars to improve the handling and increase the visually aggressive appeal of these little bulldogs on wheels. Unfortunately, lowering these early-generation MINIs (R50/R52/R53) can have a negative side effect on their suspension geometry.
Enter Powerflex...
Problem Solved!
Roll Center Adjustment Kit for MINI Gen 1
Our Powerflex MINI Gen 1 Roll Center Adjustment Kit is the perfect solution for increasing roll resistance and eliminating stationary suspension compression by correcting suspension geometry in lowered MINIs. The kit is supplied with longer, high-tensile bolts to accommodate the new, thicker assembly, and it includes 5mm spacers to fine-tune roll-center correction depending on the MINI owner's static ride height and wheel size.
Anodized Aluminum Spacer Block
Premium anodized aluminum spacer block is guaranteed to last a lifetime and includes M10 high-tensile flanged bolts.
Spacer Block Installed
Standard fitment, often ideal for lowered Gen 1 MINIs with 16" or smaller wheel sizes.
Spacer Block with 5mm Spacer
Additional anodized aluminum 5mm spacer is often recommended for Gen 1 MINIs with 17" or larger wheels.
