  • New Wheels on the Turbo 'Vert!

    18x9 with a 245/40-18 and 18x10 with a 285/35-18. Nitto 555's. I have to say I really like it! Thanks JSTA2V for the deal. The only hiccup in the process is that my front spindles are the ones that are problematic for the centercap. I'll have to look at swapping out the spindles for the appropriate ones or figure out some other workaround. Overall, I'm very happy with the new look.

        Looks really good Doug. Only thing i'd like to see is some 2.5" stainless tailpipes out the back.

          I've considered putting some on. I got some that came with my catback but they're not nearly as clean as a set of stockers. I think LMR sells them for about $150 new.

                  Doug, I ended up with a MAC catback that doesnt fit my xpipe. It has the chrome tips, If you want would gladly sell them (short the mufflers themselves) for less than that $150...

                    The only catch is that my mufflers should be "pretty close" to the stock location, but my 3-1/2" downpipe Y's and goes into the mufflers, so I'm not positive that they won't require some work to get to fit right. I'm hesitant to buy some not knowing if I can make them work. I may need to "borrow" some to take to the muffler shop and let them tell me if they can make them work before I commit. LOL!

                          The nice thing about the MACs is they have ball fittings so you have more adjustment.

                          IF you want them, come get them. If your muffler man cant make them work, bring them back.
