Looking for tips, Roush or Maggie?

I am looking to add a Magnaflow 12158 si/do 2.5" muffler and I am looking for rolled edge slash cut tips. I plan to have them exit near the stock location, behind the rear wheel, similar to the Magnaflow 1608 catback. I havn't found any maggie tips that look like they will work. I plan on getting 12" length tips and all Maggie offers in 12" rolled are 15 degree slash cut tips and I do not think that will be enough of an angle.

I have been looking at these Roush Tips , but they are way overpriced for what you get. Does anybody know a place to buy these tips for cheaper or similar tips for cheaper?

I really would like dual walled tips like these Magnaflow Tips , but none of theirs are long enough. Does anybody know of any slash cut dual walled tips that are at least 12"? I know they are more expensive but they look really sharp.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Matt

Do you have them exiting behind the rear wheel on the same side? That would be great if you could post up a pic. Thanks!

The Roush tips are ok, but not long enough. I prefer my 15 degree cut 4x18" rolled stainless Magnaflow tips.

Those look really good, but I am going to have them exit on the same side behind the rear wheel, similar to the Magnaflow 16608. I am just worried that the 15 degree won't be enough angle to make it even with the cab.

If the tips are angled right it will look good, and mine look good with the lines of my bumper corners in my opinion.

I found these MRRP tips that look like they should work. They are double walled and really cheap.

Your tips do look good, I originally planned on doing a true dual setup with tips on both sides like yours but I can't spend that much right now so I am going to try to do this as cheap as possible. Thanks for the help guys!

Sounds good, good luck. I had a '02 black WS6 6spd with minor bolt ons & a GMMG cat-back.

I had a stock black 99 a few years back and I just sold my 01 Ws6 with minor bolt ons. I miss it but I am loving the new truck!

Looked sweet man. Mine was all stock outside, looked like an average stock WS6. I got it as a self graduation gift when I was 18. Now i'm 20, got rid of it 11 months ago, insurance was high, and I kept getting too many tickets
