About your tires

I like your tires too, but am wondering if they are directional tires. If so, aren't they mounted backwards on the passenger side? If you are in water, won't the water be pulled into the tire tread on the passenger side rather than be pushed away as on the driver side? If I am wrong, please educate me.

Take the camera which captures video and put it next to exhaust and record a video clip.

Ok the little lady took the X5 today. When she started it up, it had a GREAT DEEP tone. The deep that can rattle windows, if there was more volume.

She calls me and she noticed the diffrence. I got the :thumbup::thumbup: from her.

So I will try to get a video up soon. I have an SLR and that has no vids, still working on it.

So far :thumbup::thumbup: for that OEM+ mod

great mod..pretty cool to keep the oem mufflers yet straight through in the middle..stealthy, but I'm sure noticeable with the sound..I may go this route with my 3.0.

Steed, very interesting approach. I didn't even think these exhaust mods were "necessary" on a 4.8is because I thought it was already at full capacity on the exhaust side. Do you think the hp would continue to inch up if you swapped the mufflers as well? You still have the OEM mufflers and tips, right?

Stan,
Yes the 4.8 does have a good system from the factory. I just wanted to add a bit more. YES the OEM mufflers are on my list. I am looking for the right replacement. I think I have found a nice solution that might work at a good price. I still want to maintain the OEM+ look. YES performance will inch up with a replacement. Stand by for some more fun later. :)
