Whats up guys, n00b question here but what does the offset mean on getting rims n tires? Im looking to get some nice forged 19s n then drop my car bout 1.5 but i keep seeing offset numbers n not sure what they mean... Whats a good all around suspension system set-up so my tires wont get eaten alive quickly... tein coils/springs (any suggestion?) camber kits... anything else for a nice slam look on the car but not compromising tire life?

Springs/Sway bars/camber kit. Make it handle like a go kart and ull have alot more fun than stock. Id say rims next. Make sure you get good fitments though. It really brings the car alive. Then exhaust/intake.

What are good fitments for a 06 35 coupe 6mt? Looking for some nice 19's forged and slamming it a bit but without having to make serious modifications to the bumper.. Whats a good tire and offset size to accomplish this?

I have the borla and love it with the berk hfc's, but if I had to do it again I would go with the Fast Intentions exhaust.

I think the best set-up would be the FI exhaust with the 300 cell HFC's from FI also.

I wouldn't go with test pipes because you will probably get rasp. Go with some HFC's, it will make the exhaust sound deeper without the rasp. If you plan on getting a tune then go with headers. If you plan on getting them, the cost of installing headers will probably run you about $400 - $500.

Ok, hp gain wise are test pipes and hfc equal? I hear test pipes allow for less restriction but at the cost of the "raspy" noise.. I dont mind the sound as long as test pipes can give more hp gains.. Which is better for the hp gain? hfcs or test pipes?
