im gonna do it regardless. i just hope if its cool at first and im happy with it, as soon as im comfortable im gonna have a blowout doin 75 goin to work..i just dont want something like that to happen. honestly i just like the look of the big *** tires on a smaller lift. my grandfather owns a tire joint so i can get a set of 31s for free but it still almost looks stock (not what im going for)

I have the magnaflow too and love it, they are cheaper on ebay but I wanted a warranty(salt in winter kills an exhaust) so I got it here. magnaflow 15843, or you can try one of the vendors here, they are always running sales/specials. either way its a great system and very easy to install.

Bringing this thread back back from the dead. Yes, 32" tires on a 3" lift is a good idea (with the right wheels, and a trim).
