4 or 5 inch exhaust tips??

I am considering getting some bigger exhaust tips on my SS, Ive seen the Corsa 4" tips which I believe just bolt on, they look good...does anyone have any suggestions or pics of the best size exhaust tips for the SS?

Thanks

4" at most. After that (IMO) it gets a bit tacky. Always reminds me of the pick ups and old Camaro/caprice with like 2 1/4" exhaust.....then they clamp on some huge, usually crooked, tip.........uuugh!

If you go bigger than 4in, i'd look for double walled tips. Mine are 4.5in and sit VERY close to the rear exhaust cut out. People have melted their rear valance from the heat with big tips.

Are you on stock mufflers? If so, you're SOL. I couldn't find a set of decent tips that would fit in the space, or lack of space, available. Maybe things have changed since I looked but good luck.

HAHA. Bigger than 4in tips will look tacky says the guy with Lambo doors? I would think that anyone with Lambo doors would be the first to say, get what you want.
