Default New Rims + Exhaust!! Pics + Videos...!

I posted earlier with worse pictures but here is a better photoshoot. These were taken after I installed my DC Sports Carbon Steel 2 Strut Bar & Tanabe Concept G Exhaust. The wheels are 18" TSW Vortex's wrapped in Kumho Ecsta ASX 225/40/18. I need all season tires considering I live in Chicago.Enjoy!

p.s. I have TRD shocks + struts on the way so the car will be lowered soon

I like the fact that your wheels give that little something extra without taking away from the tC in any way.

you're right they are similar...did you take a look at the second video i posted though? they do the wheels much more justice than the pictures, they look great in motion

Clean look, not too flashy reminds me of the stock 18's on a newer Maxima . Do you man it only matters if you like it, congrats .

those look pretty good in motion, not all ricediculous like some other people on here

i have some 5 spoke 16" kosei wheels that are lightweight and going on my tc as soon as the weather gets better. they kinda look similar to what you have going on.

The exhaust doesn't sound too bad. A lot better than stock! Rims are nice too. Will look 10x better one you throw on the TRD Springs. (YES! I read you "p.s.". ) Good job.

i like it. the rims are aggressive yet subtle enough not to take away from the overall beauty

I don't know what the heck you guys are talking about, it's obviously Mazda3 wheels. I think it looks perfect, very nice and classy, fits the tC.

Isn't the exhaust sitting a little close to the bumper?
