mods look better and they tend to have more of an offset than boost alloys - fills the arches better.

needs a piccy from the front or back - then it would show the real difference. the alloys would show a narrower track than the mods.

alloys look far better in my opinion and wont rush. if you wanted more offset i would of put a set of spacers on.
