Hey guys so currently I'm in a predicament on deciding what to do next to my car. Currently I am FBO, phearable 1.5, running a muffler delete with aftermarket exhaust tips. I recently just started working on suspension and all that so I'm running BC Coilovers BR series on my car. I have a 10th gen hatchback sport manual, and I'm having a hard time deciding whether or not to get wheels, and tires next or an actual exhaust system. For wheels I'm looking at the gramlights 57dr in blue, wrapped around some hankook v12 evo 2, and for exhaust system I'm looking at MAPerformances brand new exhaust system for 10th gen hatches. Performance wise what would be the best option here ?

Wheels are more expensive. But you can also sell your stock wheels much easier than selling a stock exhaust. I sold my stock wheels within 10 days on both my civics. The stock exhaust is basically worthless and is bulky to store…

Go for Wheels/tires.. you'll need them sooner than later, for sure.
I'm down for buying some stock 18" sport wheels/rims.. could use some full sized spares. Rim perfection isn't necessary so long as they're not totally looking destroyed.. so I'd be good with a B grade set provided they haven't taken too much impact/curb dmg, doesn't need to be unscratched A level or undamaged as I'm just looking to make some full sized spares available in a pinch

I can tell you every time I get in my car and start it up I smile when I hear the exhaust.

Wheels and sticky tires would be my choice since you already have a muffler delete. Unless you don't like the muffler delete anymore, then I'd understand wanting to switch it up.

If sound makes you smile more than the way the car handles or performs then go exhaust, but keep in mind even if you are a sound person wheels/tires are still smile worthy and also worth more functionally.
