I paid 1157 for the whole package. I doubt you will get them that cheap with those tires. I work at discount tire so I got helped out a lot thanks for all the support guys!! I have a bunch of parts on backorder too!

i thought someone would say this. im looking for them USED. and 1100 is a pretty good price. the rims alone are 775 shipped i believe. beems must have got a special deal on tires since he works at the place

I got the rims straight from rota, no middle men for me. I've been looking for a lip. But everyone wants so damn much for them and they are normally beat up. I'm taking a trip to Nissan today to find out how much a brand new one is

more parts! i just got in my ISIS GT Exhaust. i had to wait forever because it was on back order. then when enjuku sent it they didnt have my ISIS test pipe in stock. so i talked to Ken and he let me switch to a megan one, i swear its the only megan product touching my car, im glad no one can see it.

so putting the exhaust on, it fit like S**T. but it was cheap so i didnt care. i just bent the hangers to hell and back and it fits good and tight now.

other parts i got were the AEM wideband and autometer dual gauge pod. im installing the wideband this weekend as long as i can get the bung welded on.

I like it alot. And so do my neighbors. I was running an open downpipe for a few months so this is way better. It's surprisingly quite when you want it to be. I like everything about it but the fitment and cannon

Looking good, but you should worry more about Isis products rather than Megans.

Is that a redtop motor with a black top valve cover? It doesn't look like the head has the heat fins. I could be wrong.

Not a fan of the rims, but the tires/size is awesome. Wiiiiiide a** tires. So much grip. Excellent stuff sir.

Word. Megan has been alot longer in business and sold alot of stuff, and its proven to work well. I have their downpipe,test pipe, and turbo outlet pipe, and not a single issue with fitment or quality... Also my friend runs a megan exhaust and he had no fitment issues with it.

Nice build though, diggin the rims, (I have the same ones except in 18in) also rocking black s14! Keep it up
