Tips What should I get

Hey guys what size tips should I get for my truck. I was thinking of slash cut tips coming out at 45s back off the rear bumper. 4 inch. Do you guys have pics off your tips on your truck so I could get a idea off how they would look. I have a 96 150. 5 inch tips look pretty intimidating but maybe 4 inch is big enough. Thanks for the help guys.

IMO, 4" would look best.

I love my 5"X22" SS Tips, I have them angled out the back like you are describing, I simply love them, they fit the truck perfectly if you ask me. Little, and I mean LITTLE, 3.5" tips just look like little pencils sticking out to me, even 4"ers look to small to me now. I also love the sound these things give, a really, really nice grumble.

I am quite happy with my 5"x60" tips. If your exhaust comes straight out the back, then I would go with 5" tips. If it still comes out the stock location, I would stick with 3.5"-4". I think it's kind of tacky to see the massive change in pipe diameter when you are sitting behind the truck.
