i would not do it if u have chrome or aluminum wheels the exhaust gases will turn the wheels white looking thats what i was told at the muffler shop when i wanted side exit pipes in front of the wheels!

Theres one guy I've seen with the full side pipes like you're talking about. I think his name is "timmydatoolman" or somthing like that.

Thats not true. Plenty of people are running side exit (including myself) and I've never heard of anybodys wheels becoming dirtier compared to before the side exit pipes. Hell, even when my motor was on its last leg and POURING smoke outta the exhaust, my wheels still didnt even really get dirty from it.

You mean pipes like these? I don't know what the vettes looked like. I like it and it causes no problems with my CCW's
