Just picked this up last week! need help with wheel and exhaust mods

I just picked this up four days ago; I didn’t need another car, but I am so pleased I did; I would never drive an NA V8 before, and it’s a lot of fun.

The color is Daytona grey, and I am considering blacking out all the silver accents and badges and then replacing the wheels in either gloss black or satin black. The ideal size for me was 20x10.5 with a 25 offset. I want concave wheels. The top picks right now are Braelin BR10 20x10.5 +30, Niche Misano 20x10.5 +27, and Superspeed RF07 20x10.5 +27. I believe Braelin is the only manufacturer that offers Gloss Black wheels with these specifications.

As for the exhaust, I’m not sure what I want; the stock sport exhaust is nice, but I would like to hear more when it’s in exhaust. Let me know. After I have the wheels, the car will be painted correctly, given a ceramic coat, and tinted.

Please let me know what wheels and mods you have in mind; I am open to any recommendations.

I would leave it as-is visually. All these blacked-out automobiles nowadays don’t do it for me. This is nice, and I would leave it that way. If you desire, you could try to exhaust it.

Yes, several others have told me the same thing; I will consider that, thanks! I just really wanted black wheels and thought it would be weird if I didn’t black out the silver and chrome.

Get OEM rotor wheels. I’m not sure whether the offsets are different, but they work on my B8 5x112. I definitely wouldn’t cheap out on the exhaust, but get a good one.

Yeah, I’m thinking of getting an ECStuning xpipe with a res delete. As for the wheels, I really want some aftermarket wheels, preferably black, but with Daytona grey, I believe silver or grey would look better.

Alzor-style rotors would go nuts on that, but make sure you buy some nice ones. I like the alzors because they’re very tough, but to each their own.
