Look into 1.5" wheel adapters from WheelAdapter.com . They will push your stock rims out and allow the clearance needed. Lots of guys here (myself included) have them and they are great. They are a bit pricey, (about $95 a corner) but are custom made by a guy who builds race cars for a living, and they are still cheaper than new wheels. (beware of the el-cheapos on ebay)

then exhaust, i would like to get some flowmaster muffler (one that is pretty loud but not annoying) with it true dueled at 45s out the back. however my friend was telling me about getting it H-piped and i was wondering what would be better.

Look into a Borla. I have Borla duals and they are not too loud and not too quiet.
