did you notice any differences in the hybrid system with the adding of heavier rims - like does it recharger slower or faster? any drop in mpg?

also, hows the exhaust noise with the CVT?

seeing yours make me wanna go over my build budget haha. cant wait to see it in person

That was my 1st concern when the muffler place offer me the exhausts, but after a lot of consideration I just stay with stock exhaust with those tips.
