Well, I may as well start off my 1000th post with a poll and hope to get some feedback from everyone.

A) Hot Shot Headers: $650 or so including shipping from SWA, and $350 install from Jeff at Maximum Tuning

Or

B) Rims and Tires Package: Somewhere along the lines of $1000-$1200 (not looking for too bling)

Thing is, I can't get both because I'm looking to move down to FL next year, and I need to save $$$. I know this is like comparing apples to oranges, but if you guys had a choice, and I expect some biased opinions about one mod over the other, which would you choose?

 

Less if you call.

 

Hey Steve, just wanna say "thanks again" for the Outstanding service! I'll definetly make a stop over to visit when I'm in AZ!

I would save money if you are moving.

 

Of course this is my bias because I live in Florida. You should wait until after your move and make sure you are in a place where you feel comfortable putting money into your car and possibly having it vandalized or parts stolen from it.

 

Rims....You won't void the warranty.

 

You can always mod your car after you move. Find a good place to settle down first.

Hey guys, thanks for all the sound advice and feedback! Based on the poll results, it looks dead even between the tire/rims or headers choice. If I were to get tires and rims, it would be probably in another month, as the weather gets warmer and nicer, but if it were the headers, I probably wouldn't get them until sometime in September. Again, how much $$$ I have saved up by that time b4 I move to FL will be a key factor, as well as settling down in a (hopefully) pretty safe area.

 

Thanks for the heads up! I don't plan on moving to Miami, but I also hope Broward or Palm Beach counties aren't too bad, like they are here in NY. I was surprised Daytona Beach with Sadlers car, such a shame!

 

Headers...rims and tires are going to cost DOUBLE that.

 

you are running on stock tires? i say get a nice 18" wheel/tire package if you are on stock tires. I hear it rains a lot in FL and it will soon be hurricane season...get the wheels.

 

It depends on what you want. Are you going for Show or Go? It's all up to you. I got my wheels and tires first, then started doing performance mods.

 

We could use some rain right about now. It's pretty dry here and we are already into our fire season. Stock tires work well for me here.
