Yeah, the modulo kit wasn't updated for the 2012 shape. So in the end your front will look like the pre-facelift with the exception of the headlights.

Hey guys,

Sorry, I know rims and wheels have been discussed many times before as I've been following this thread since 12x pages but back then, I didn't really pay attention to the specs as I didn't know much (I still don't, therefore the questioning). But if I search, there are just too many results and I want a more refined/specific answer.

Anyways, I wanted to know what would be the 'best' rims specs for 19". I want a flush look, my car is sort of low. Picture for reference:

I've been told to go 19x8.5 + 38 front and +35 in the rear. I know of a guy, running 19x9.5 +45 all round but I want to go a lower offset. What would be the lowest possible offset I could go? And should I just stick to a certain width all round or could I go more wide in the rears?

I've already gotten my front guards rolled as they were rubbing/cutting my tyres.

Any help is appreciated, thanks guys.

Edit: Also guys, what is the difference between the sizes of progress RSB's? 19mm and 22mm? What would be for our cars?

This is unrelated but how did installing the Badges and Spoiler etc... go mate?? :D

Hahah all good. Everything was fine. I just snapped off the two clips for the rear badge cause the clips weren't a perfect fit but it's fine (Y) Spoiler was no problem too. Quite satisfied with it, good replica :P Thanks a lot again for the help man!
