Palo Uber Wheels & Alta Exhaust Arrived

Still waiting for the car.

Palo Uber 18's with Yoko's Parada Spec 2 215/35/18's and Alta Exhaust w/ dual 3" tips. Hooooooot!

Wife found me sitting in the garage making varoooom noises again.

Truly humiliating But only a couple of weeks till the real deal arrives.

Those wheels are simply amazing!

Is that all there is to the Alta exhaust? Sheesh, $730 for a muffler, huh? Those sure are pretty tips though!

I priced a cat-back Tubi system for my 360 a year ago, and it totalled almost $5,800. I thought the Alta was fairly reasonable in comparison. We'll see what it sounds like. The wheels are super light and I hope not too delicate.

I am enjoying the change in scale when it come to mod prices on Mini's everything seems fairly affordable. I haven't seen one $700 carbon fiber cup holder yet

That means you haven't looked at the JCW carbon fiber stuff
