are they different sizes? the Modular looks a lot bigger than the Alloy, to the extent that it would not fit on the rear.

So basically, while it pains me to say it, as I am an Alloy's man, we both agree the Mods look a lot better. So, did you have to modify any panels to fit them, or just remove the front mud flaps? What is the wheel size and offset? |

I thought that "modulars" were steel wheels that could be taken apart allowing tyres to be fitted without a machine
So wouldn't these technically be called Steel Wheels? But yeah, people always come up to me and ask, "what did you pay for your modulars
