I need some help regarding exhaust tips...

Hey guys, I am thinking of getting these exhaust tips that I found on eBay for a really good price, but I am not 100% sure they'll fit. I measured my circumferences for the exhaust pipe and got 7.5in for the inlet and 10in for the outlet so when I do maths lol, I get 2.38in for the inlet diameter so does that mean that these won't fit, or are they [the tips] supposed to be slightly larger?

Thanks!

In my opinion, you would want your tips to be slightly larger than you exhaust pipe since if it was the same diameter it would simply butt up against it and you would not be able to snug it up around. So if your exhaust is measuring roughly 2.40" for an outer diameter, a 2.50" tip should fit just perfect!

I am by no means an expert, so I'm sure someone else can chip in to either confirm or deny what I just said!

But the tips look great! I'd buy them if shipping wasn't the same price as the tips themselves....

You must be outside of the US, because for me the shipping is free.
