Default Sooooooo Rims or Map
as per the title

I need to do both, but what would you do first!
I cant make my mind up heh

new rims with tyres, as the alloys with the car are kerbed to sht (and im prob gonna dump the gold colour :S )

Remap the car with a new "downpipe"?

reckon both are gonna cost about the same sorta price

Remap is a lot cheaper than rims and will be more fun

plus if you have decated the downpipe then it will need it for safety at the very least

Tyres!! If you are not happy with current grip, once mapped your are likely to end up needing accident repair etc
