If your thinking 19s, you can do 20s

Edit: Besides, tires are cheaper too!

Haha yeah...but it looks so big on the car...Honestly I already find the upgrade from stock 17 with all seasons to 18 with summer tires a big decrease in comfort

the road here is so ****ty

but anyways, i save up for coils first and drop to 24.5 fender-ground and see how it looks

wheels are not in a rush

willing to wait for the velgen in 19's

Anyways, so here's the scoop

I contacted NM yesterday (they closed today for good Friday so I'm going in tomorrow) but basically same thing he said the V have some issues they're trying to solve, and that if I really want to test fit I need to book a time with their bodyshop and they need to do it because it's a little hard, and he also says even the authentic vertex is a little hard to fit (????? BS??). He says he can also get wald for 09 which a previous customer purchased and the fitment was really good so I'm going to go in tomorrow and may order that but we'll see
09-10 wald from nm is good fitment? can anyone confirm this? last time i saw they only had the trunk lip on their website..

it'd be a nice alternative to vertex for me..

I'm waiting for it. Will test fit before paying once it arrives.

It's not on their site because it's not "theirs"

They probably order it from another supplier since it's PU

NextMod only makes FRP kit

lol got it last weekend, but it's wrong lip
they ordered 09, and it had 09 part no. on the package
but it doesn't fit at all bc it's completely wrong
doesn't look like 06 either
seems to me like the rep made for the 11+ nonfsport bumper
they ordered again, we'll see how it is
