Remus + 20inch Replica with TOYO review

I finally had the chance to drive on the highway with my 20's with TOYO proxes and newly installed Remus. My x is a 2001 4.4i non-sport with 51k miles. First of all these fat tires with the shinny exhaust tips plus the 4.6 kit MAKES the car, I love the look and not sure if I need the 4.6 fender flare in the back.
First on the exhaust; believe it or not, the Remus is as quite if not quiter than stock. Car at idling and low to normal RPM driving is very very quite, i almost think it's smoother than stock. When the pedal hits the metal however, it is very loud from the outside, (odd thing is it's still not instrusive from the inside) I actually setoff a parked car's alarm! Performance wise I actually think there is a slight gain, this however could be pyschological due to themore aggressive exhaust tone.
Now those Toyos... They are awesome at high speed, definitely quiter than stock and puts alot more confidence in me at high speed cruising and cornering. I had to constantly check my speedometer making sure I don't hit triple digits. The car is that much more smoother and QUITER!
Bottom line both products are definitely worth the investment for their looks and performance. Don't think twice!
