Default Maybe its a sign

I'm so f'ing pissed this morning. I curbed my rear wheel on the way to work

After I calmed down, I realized, maybe its a sign I should go ahead and get some aftermarket wheels. I've been thinking about getting some, I guess now's a good time. Too bad it took a curbed wheel to make that happen.

Now I have to decide which wheels I want.

I like Works. I like a couple of the Axis wheels also. I'll probably do some research over the weekend to see which I think look better on my Z.

The thing that sux the most is that there is no one to blame but myself for the curbed wheel. I should have been paying more attention to my turning and less on the hot chick with the huge ***** walking into my office building

I like either 5zigen / Racing Hart / Axis / or AME Circlar Spec-R! Gram lights has some decent looking rims but i never had a chance to buy a set... kinda pricey

ha, that's funny Kuruu. yeah, this was a first time sighting of this chick. I'll have to keep a heads up for her again.

Now that I think about it, I wonder how many of us have almost been in an accident or almost had one while being distracted looking at hot chicks walking by.

It sucks so many people have been curbing their wheels too, and the stock rims are so overpriced when you're forced to replace them. At least insurance covered my bf's for the most part when some crazy wench cut him off.. you're right it could be a sign!

Or maybe it's a sign you should not buy aftermarket wheels, since you curbed the stockers.

How upset would you be if you curbed a 19x10.5" $800 Volk?

Sorry about your wheel man. I'd puke if I curbed one of mine and they're just cheap wheels.

Definitely a sign it's time for new wheels.
