Wheel/Tire Dilemma

[Fireglow6]

So I was looking at my Pro5 today, pondering wheel tire combo, Not sure what I want to do, I do know I don't want all season, as I have snow/ice tires already, I like the black with chrome lip just not sure on style or size. Anybody have any suggestions? I found one set but want input on other ideas. The Pro5 will be painted Black next spring. so keep that in mind.

nooooooooooo leave it silver!

Think I should leave it Silver? Let's take a vote? Silver or Black? Rims: Black or Gun Metal or other suggestions?

silver with gunmetal rims

Oh wait then it'd be like my car

yea, I just talked to my Brother-in-law, and hes going to spot paint it, just the spots that need it, buff it up and fix the one rust spot , I think I'm going to go these:

Also looking at exhuast, What should i go with, I know it's an auto but with that make a difference? anyone have any suggestions? Greddy, Skunk2, Magnaflow?

I agree #2 wheel. Cat back exhaust alone will not yield much gain, but it sure makes it sound good. Out of those 3 I'd choose Magnaflow. Whatever you do, do not get a huge fart can. Also, the Mazdaspeed muffler is out of the equation. That thing just drones in the car.

 

[Fireglow6]

i was looking more towards the magnaflow

 

[altspace]

Good choice.

 

[subspeed6]

Good choice.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Ashley.


I'd go with option #2. I've always been a fan of gunmetal gray. I can say that I've seen a silver corvette go from silver wheels to black and it makes the space in the wheel well seem huge. It makes it look like it isn't lowered at all. Something to think about...

thanks for the help ash...jenn...(hand)

I'm with mark on the racing beat exhaust, got it on my P5 and love it. Also got it on my miata

I too had the RB muffler, problem is that you need to cut the tip and re-weld back on since it sticks out a lot further on the sedan.
