No Clip, but I love the sound. I still have the cat, at use a 2.5 plate. Nice deep sound to it.

I noticed you asked, whats the widest you can run. Most people here are stating to run 18x9.5 with 275s, although that is probably the most common setup it is definately not the widest you can run. There are other people here who have done 18x10.5 inch wide rims...I am not sure what tire sizes they are running though. That said I am running 18x9.5s with 275s all the way around, and I don't like the rears at all. I would prefer a wider rim/tire combo and someday I will have one. Good luck with whatever you choose.
