What would you do?

Okay so I have 08 gray G37S coupe. With nothing done but 20% tints all around... I have the opportunity to either get a exhaust system or rims, and I am completely torn between the two, so I would like others opinions on what you guys would do.

What I have in mind for the exhaust is the ARK GRiP Exhaust because of the sound and even the look from the back end. (Open to exhaust suggestions)
As for rims, I'm set on the "Stance five spoke SC-5ive machined rims".
So basically id just like to know what you guys think of both products and which one you would get if you only could have one. I'm completely torn between them right now.

Personally, I prefer performance to aesthetics. For you, I would say to decide first if you want to mod your car for Hp, or for looks first. Either of those is a fantastic entry into that world. I will warn you, once you start modding for looks, it's hard to stop. You'll find yourself up at night shopping for splitters, diffusers, grilles, and lights. It's the same for performance, except you'll be looking for manifolds, cats, and intakes.

I like your style though. Welcome to the forum.

Can you afford a drop at the same time? If not, get the exhaust.

Drop first for sure. If you don't want to go all out, just get the swift springs and spc camber kits and move on. You should be able to get dropped and aligned for not to much over 1K parts plus labor w/ this setup.

Definitely exhaust. Might not give you much power but better sound.
