Default New wheels and full exhaust.

Not really brand new wheels, I had them on the SC300 before I wrecked it.

I really like the way they look, the chrome rims I had made the car look too old, these make it a little more racy looking.

I have S&S headers, and the exhaust+flanges after the headers came from ScottURnot. Perfect fit, and looks great! I have a slight, slight tick when under throttle so I need to do some wrenching later this week.

Back tires are 265/35, 18s. I love them

Darker wheels look so much sportier. I like it a lot!

Exhaust looks good man. I kind of liked the other rims better. I hear you on the chrome though. I just took off a set of TT Chromes to much bling bling.

I liked them too, but they just seemed to subtle. I've gotten way more compliments and even a lot more people pulling up next to me with these bronze ones.

I like chrome, but I just didn't like this set. I'd go chrome again but bigger rims, those were 18s. Didn't fill in as well as I wanted them to.

Supercharger. Its all bolt on and I'll have it early Feb, the W58 is on hold until I find a good deal on the adapter plate... a hefty $700+ so I'll be waiting for that one.
