Just curious, how do you think borlas sound compared to magnaflows? And what might be better than the other from the 2 brands

After a while the loud droning, obnoxious cab noise gets old lol I like to be able to hear it, but I want to hear it sound good, not just be bellowing in my ear all the time lol I guess what I'm saying is to me a good exhaust system is quality of sound over quantity

X2 trucks are supposed to have some volume. can't beat a truck with a good rumble. but you can go overboard.

Yeah, for sure. I mean nothing too much. I just want her to sound good. And now that I looked up 5x135 wheels, I can't find any that are by the brands I mentioned.

Eagle alloy and ultra wheel both have wheels that look like what you mentioned

If I were looking for 17x9 (5x135) would 17x8 (5x135) make any difference to me? If not, I found the size I need in the pro comp wheel I wanted.

The 17x9 is wider and will spread your tires out more and look better

If I remember correctly, not sure about the middle two though lol
P indicates load range
245 is the size
70 is the aspect ratio
And the R is wheel size


Here's a helpful tool I keep bookmarked to visualize tire sizing and compare
