Show Off // Mini Countryman on Forgiato
Every time the name Forgiato rings to my ear, I immediately thought of some peculiar, out-of-this-world wheel designs. While most wheel manufacturers are currently obsessed with concaves and others are doing vintage comebacks, this particular wheel company has been paving its own path. Imagine a marathon contestant taking the plunge into the water instead, to pass through the shorter route …
