12" On Sportspack?

I'm looking to buy my first mini, a Rover with the Sportspack to be precise. I've read that the 13" wheels affects quite a bit the way it drives, and that fitting 12x6 would improve it a lot. So I was wondering if any of you guys had photos of Sportspack with 12" on them to see how they look.
This isn't a new topic, but I can't open the images of this same thing from years ago. Thanks for the help!

Hi, my opinion it will not look right with 12inch wheels on sportpack arches . I have 13x7 wheels and its fine for me . I would not worry about it as long as your not going on the track .

Probably look better lower and with a wider wheel but imo sportspack atches only really work with the larger 13" wheels

Non-Sportspack 12" wheels on a Sportspack do look awful, however the wheels with correct offset look fine....

You will be limited to the style wheels you can fit (they need to have a -7 offset) but i've driven 13x7, 13x6, & 12x6 - & for handling & road feedback the smallest are the best.
A long time ago i weighed my standard Sportspack wheels & the 12x6 wheels were half the weight!
