The wheels are 17x7 :oops: . I know they’re small, but that’s all I could budget for at the time I purchased them. My next set of wheels I get will definitely have a bigger offset, bigger lip, and most likely they’ll be 18s. New wheels won’t be coming quickly though, I want to get some GTR seats and some coilovers this summer to start.

One question I have is what type of exhaust should I get? I really REALLY hate fart cannons. I was looking for something like the Apexi N1 Dual, but not as loud. I was thinking about the SSAutochrome Dual Exhaust but I’ve heard mixed stories about SSautochrome stuff. I’m hoping to find something that looks sort of like the stock exhaust (dual tips) and isn’t ridiculous loud. BTW, it needs to be a 3" catback or just the muffler with a 3" inlet. Hopefully you guys can give me some good suggestions.

Apexi WS exhaust, RS\*R ex mag, and Greddy SP2 are pretty decent, non-cannon style exhausts.

i don’t mind the chrome wheels, i almost bought a set myself. my issue is offset too. you’ll need some 15mm spacers atleast, which adds to the cost of wheels. at $150/pair, you could of afforded another $75 per corner for wheels and tires.

here’s some nice wheels in 17X7.5 +20 [http://www.1010tires.com/wheel.asp?wheelbrand=Zinik&wheelmodel=Z7+Adrian](http://www.1010tires.com/wheel.asp?wheelbrand=Zinik&wheelmodel=Z7+Adrian)

and another in 16X7 +20, which are pretty cheap as well. [http://www.1010tires.com/wheel.asp?wheelbrand=Platinum&wheelmodel=Attitude](http://www.1010tires.com/wheel.asp?wheelbrand=Platinum&wheelmodel=Attitude)

If your spending the money atleast get something 8-9 inches wide.

Otherwise there is no point to haveing wheels

^^ Thanks for suggestions on exhaust. I was hoping I could find something more stockish looking like this:

The thing is its too loud. I don’t feel like being a heat score.

I was thinking the SSAutochrome Dual Tip Catback but I’ve heard mixed stories about SS.
