new calipers when i can afford it, im hoping brembos or anything else equal quality and more affordable. i have new black mudflaps with red lettering coming in next week so that will tone it down nice

something like that, the shop said "stock chevy tahoe tint in the back" and the next lower one in front. so i think its about 25% to 30 in rear and about 20% in front

Looks like what Superman would 'drive'. You just need some yellow in there to resemble the belt! ;)

I have a stock dp now. But its not nowhere near annoying loud. Its actually perfect the way it is. Im afraid once i get a dp it will get super loud. Right now its got the nice boxer rumble and its deep. You looking to get one? There are some youtube clips

yeah, i am, i like the price of them compared to others and it looks nice. i listened to the youtube clips and i didn't think that they were that loud either, i was looking on 3gwrx.com and a guy on there thought it was too loud, but others did not. One guy said he might get the two separate perrin downpipes because they have two cats...i am pretty sure i am getting that exhaust though. Is yours the race or resonated one? i heard there really is a difference in noice?

To OP:
What diameter rims are those? I'm looking to get some too, but I'm still deciding on whether I want 17's or 18's. Any suggestions?

Btw, nice wheels *thumbs up*
