Whatever drop on this page would fit you the best, coilovers or springs:

Exactly - way cheaper than a single 18" wheel & tire (approx. $175 for Budget y-pipe)

If you put 20s on your car, it will be significantly slower, just making sure you know this. Y-pipe will give up to 15hp, mm next step might be MEVI...

A y-pipe and 20's will cancel each other out.

so true. if you're going to get 20's you might want to tend to the engine at a later time and go for looks first. and make sure you get a drop.....there's a much better chance that they won't look silly.

they aren't anymore quality than budget...i'd say more of a rip off actually.

just get a budget ypipe, save like $100.

its www.budgetexhaust.com i think.
you'll have to call them to order.

I guess the Y-pipe I have is a fake one. Thanks for showing me the light, I am going to run out today and spend an extra $200 for the "real thing"

It's a freakin piece of bent metal.

I will make a suggestion. I just got 18's and dropped my max 1.7 inches but did not replace the shocks. Doing this was a very bad idea. My car now rides horrible. Turning is great, however I don't think that its worth sacrificing the smooth ride of the max, for a bumpy *** ride. So if your going to drop your ****, make sure to get new shocks at the same time.

How funny... like MikeD said, it's a piece of bent metal. Hey Maximous509 why don't you be the first to put 26's on your max? They would fit nearly perfectly with no drop!

alright, geez, calm down. all i said to start this was that custommaxima.com sells quality aftermarket parts. god damn, people get so flustered over such little things. you need to chill out a bit.
