wide wheels and dual exhaust

98_dodge4x4 · December 4, 2005

i dont know, but i think that wide wheels make a truck look like a truck. stock 7" wide wheels look like crap. i put some 16"x10" wheels on my truck and got some dual 2 1/4" strait pipes. they arent true strait pipes tho, theyre strait then y into the catylatyc convertor then y back into dual pipes....which i never heard of doing, but it sounds good. if you got wide wheels and loud pipes, it makes a truck more of a truck. and the dual exhaust give you back the power and gasmileage lost by your wide wheels, so your not really losing anything.

i think 275's and 18s with a 2/4 drop looks very nice. As far as exhaust, i did this.

I beg to differ my milage went WAY down when I got straight pipes. Probable because I like being heard.

Thats my problem as well. If I take a 4 hour drive on the highway, I notice about 3MPG gain with my FIPK and duel exhaust, but in town I just can't seem to keep my foot out of the gas!
