Anything stainless steel will be fine. Check eBay. You can find knockoff stainless steel tips for about 15-20 bucks each. They last just fine.

Stainless, 3.5-4" diameter, 18" or longer (in most cases)...

I like Magnaflow and Silverline personally...

I have had Flowmaster tips for 6 months now, all good. One problem though the slash cut ones are sharp enough to send you to the hospital to get stitches. I wash cleaning my bumper off and had an half inch slice across the top of my fingure by my nail that was .25 inches deep.

Magnaflow has a massive selection of tips and they're all stainless. My personal favorite is the rolled tips.

I like the rolled tips as well, but went with the slash, I like the steeper angle of the cut... definitely look at the "Lets see your exhaust exits" thread, some very nice ones in there... I'm hoping to have mine on later today, and I'll throw pics up when I get them.

Rolled tips FTW . Thats whats bad about some tip manufacturers that dont shave the edgings of the tips.
