Very nice!

Do you have spacers? What size are you using front/back?

20mm front
15mm rear
1 size wider tire front and rear. With my set-up 15 front and 10 rear would have looked to me a little better.

Have to remove defuser to take off exhaust trim that comes through defuser or tips won't fit .
Exhaust shop has to do a little fabrication but it's just to bend pipe and weld in place to fit tips on. Square ends of OEM pipe off muffler need cut off.

Well , you actually can't . What you're seeing is shadows. However, not many cars out there could get close enough to see it if I choose to not let them 🤷😅

So you have 255/35R20 front & 285/30R20 rear with 20mm front and 15mm back?

I cannot tell from the pictures, are your front and back tires inline with the fender/quarter panel or sticking out a little?

I currently have 12mm all around with the original manufacture tire size but next summer, I want to replace the Potenza as I don't like them. I'm thinking to go 285/30R20 in the rear and leave the front alone as my car is pretty low in the front but in the same time I don't want the tire to push out beyond the lip of the fender/quarter panel. I want a flushed look which I'm close to now.

Can you post few photos showing your tires on a close up view? Thanks

Yes those are the tire sizes. I'll try to snap a couple pictures straight down the side tomorrow. Both rear and front slightly stick out.

Yes they are genuine China Akropovic generic tips 😅
But... The way the car runs you would think it was a real system 🤷

Also Future Classic are great spacers as well. I'm currently using them 12mm front and back.
