Need some advice on next mod...

Well, I've had my IS 350 for a little over 2 yrs now and I've decided that I will probably be keeping it for at least another 4-5 yrs... It's been a great car. I have a few modest mods, see sig, but it's been a while since I've added anything. I'm trying to decide on the Joez PTS exhaust or 20" Vossen VVS083. I have to get new tires regardless b/c my wife was driving my car last week and had a blowout... Plus I've got 26k+ miles.. I'm not asking for anyone to make my decision for me, maybe just some insight from people who have already taken the plunge.. If I go with the exhaust I'll probably splurge for some spacers for the g-spyders.. Either way I have to scratch the itch.. just have to decide which route I'm going.. Any thoughts??

My car..

VVS083's

decide on your drop first, then when you go the rims route you can get the RIGHT offsets/tiresize and not have to use spacers/roll fenders.

I suggest you email D2-AUTOSPORT about the wait times for Vossen wheels. I asked Vossen about this on the thread he created and got no answer. If you want to scratch that itch now, I'd say go with the exhaust. It sounds and looks awesome.

Thanks for the replies...

I'm already running the eibach pro kit, not planning on changing from that... I am a little concerned about rubbing if I run 20's with the eibachs.. Probably nothing a heat gun couldnt fix...

D2 told me they are waiting for a couple of other people to jump in the groupbuy.. He said it was possible that the wheels could ship by the end of this week.
