zaust or wheels first

[David]

i just had my kit fitted to my car (picking it up tomorrow!) and i have had the atomo kit put on all round. I decided im gonna be spending some more money on her but cant afford both. So i have to decide between an exhuast for like £250 or some wheels which are gonna be double that £500 odd. At mo i think i can get new wolfrace hybrid 17s for round this with tires or the ktec 4" slash cut zaust.

Currently i have an IK making some good noise, i have standard dynamique rims on the car, lowered 40mm, colour coded ICE sorted IMO and erm a few other lil bits. I will be upgrading both zaust and wheels in time but which shouldi do first?

The kit has a cut out for the exhaust in the rear splitter at the mo...looking like a bit of a hole...and therefore a bit weird... so poeple please help me decide!

Have you lowered her? Do that first!

-60mm

actually you have that kit thing -40mm

 

[David]

yes its already lowered. 40mm

I think i would go with wheels cos then the look of the car will be all round and nicely finished

exhaust would have to be close behind tho cos then it would sound lush

but wheels first i say

Wheels..

 

[Daipac]

Wheels without a doubt, would look a bit odd on standard rims with a big bodykit IMHO.

 

[David]

[MattT]

Yeah I have seen the pics mate but the standard wheels will look too small whatever kit you have on it IMHO.

 

[David]

hmm dynamique rims suck dont they!

 

[Daipac]

They do........ but then so do MKII 172 wheels mate !

 

[David]

nooo mate, they not as bad at all! in fact i dont mind them look beefier anyways...
