Just measured mine. You have 4.5" OD tips now. It does not appear to me that another 1/4" on a side will show much difference. Plus how are you going to clear your exhaust tip surround? The wider you go the more of that itty bitty exhaust pipe hole is going to show making that look kinda ricer. This might be fine with you however if you are of the younger gen. I've been around so rice is not nice to me. :-)

Sorry for the dumb questions but what do you mean by OD? Like OEM? I didn't know the factory size of the tips but I'll probably keep the same size just change the shape to circular!

Gotcha, thank you! I probably will keep the same OD or might go down to 4" because I want the center more open
