the rims are stock but the tires are 18" .. not sure what the name of the tires are because im not picking up the car from pa until friday... also the exhaust is flowmaster--aftermarket (i dont know much about exhaust)..so to get 6le cme im assuming id have to change that obvs right? because i love that idea, along with the splitter.

No, you can just take your tips off and there cme mounts to your exhaust. Maybe some cutting involved to size things correctly but nothing major.

I am talking about 18" rims. Stockers are usually 17" on the SS and Z28, though I have seen 16". 18" rims really help teh look.

I'd ditch the blowmaster and put a decent exhaust on it first, then go CME.

The only thing that you "might" need to cut would be the pipes running off the muffler toward the rear of the car. Only reason that you "might" need to do that is for when installing the new CME tips they don't extend out too far, more of a personal preference type of thing. They also have valence kits for side mounts and new tips for those as well.

Flowmaster < stock exhaust < every crappy 4x4 truck with a flowmaster <<<< every other camaro exhaust

Value means nothing now. $550 is about standard for a catback, it isn't worth much once its been put under your car though. The 80 series Flowmaster has been shown to hold back power, just an fyi for you

Borla!

I'd put 93 in, I (did). 91 would be fine too.
