Honestly,you get what you give.( and in this storys case, I was trying to be nice and the fellow owner that PARKED NEXT TO MY CAR, THE ONLY other 350Z in the parking lot,and he was acting like an ***,so yes ill return the favor by calling out his sears style rims)
And if theres something wrong with useing crap wheels,that i got off a guy i worked with for 100.00 bucks,that i used for one winter,somebody tell me.
And btw theres nothing wrong with owning an 03.

While he didn't put it in the right way, the Cux guy from Clemson has a point. So what if he has "Sears wheels" or other cheaper wheels? You seemed to have made a similar choice with your TSWs.
Also, even if you had more expensive wheels than him, so what? He could offset that by making more money than you or having less debt to asset ratio or living in a bigger house or his stock portfolio is worth more than yours so please lets not getting into a measuring contest or any of that other high school level maturity crap.
Lastly, I stand by what I posted previously, I don't talk with complete strangers about their cars, there is nothing to be gained from that. For me, while I have been nice to those who have asked me about my car, I'm not an attention seeker and I would prefer being left alone.

Trust me, anyone older than me and white will almost never get the F&F reference. Just some 40 yr old douche talking down to a kid. Deff should have invited him for a game of keep up on the backroads.

LOL, funny story.
Wow, theres a lot of pent of frustration around these forums now a days.
My thoughts on Go before Show are this: Have both. Build your car and slap on a freshly painted body kit. Then you are at best of both worlds.
P/S are you guys seriously having a discussion about rims?

Why are we so mean to each other? We are all very nice members with one common intrest. I dont care what anyone else says or does as long as it doesnt affect me. I think HKS has a point about the one gentleman acting the way he did (mainly because I see it alot). He was there I was not! I will take his word about the mans wheels! I think its ok for him to say whatever he wants because the dude acted the way he did. I love Z's. I will admit I will try and talk to someone if I see them out in thier car. If they acted like that with me I would quickly tell them what I think of them! I am very straight forward! If you act like a D*** I will tell you your acting like a di**! Guys lets let bygons be bygons!

Look, you want to act like you werent a dick first. Plain and simple, the guy could make a thread just like yours titled:
"Some douche asked me straight up what my wheels cost and then told me his car was "more then i can afford! and called me a dick. WTF
Yeah so im in the parking lot parked next to a Z today at Sheezt. Im cleaning my wheels lip making sure they look good for the meet Im going to tonight. Then out of nowhere this guy comes up behind me and asks "How much those set you back?". What a dick! He had so little class to just come up and ask how much something cost. He didnt even compliment the wheels first. I then pulled a line from FF to retort his cheeky question and said "more then you can afford" and went back to cleaning my wheels. When he pulled out, he was in a basically stock 350z rolling on stockers and made the comment "more then you can afford...dick!!". Man, why are some 350z owners such taint lickers.
You lack a lot of class asking a complete stranger what something cost. Money is very personal and private thing. I dont ask my friends what they spend on their cars and I hate it when they ask me about mine. I really hate it when a complete stranger ask cause you never know their motives are. He probably parked next to you hoping to meet you on better terms but you messed that up first.

One of my biggest peeves is people asking me how much something to do with my car 'set me back'. I'm sure the guy cleaning his rims probably felt the same way.
And since you admit they were crappy rims, why did you even care how much they cost?

I have an 03 but my wheels are worth almost as much as a used 350Z so no hate for me.

reminds me one time when i walked into a performance store.
I asked the guy at the counter about brake kits and he answered back "is that your Z parked in front?"
So i said "yes". this guy with a stoopid look in his face "are you sure??"
i was like WTF!

OP, good story.
And I see the Volk snobs are out in full force as usual. I too made the mistake of buying TSW wheels, never again. However I often love the responses you get from people who own Volks and think God himself crafted them from Jesus bones. They are wheels, who cares?

Damn this thread took a dump. Not surprising.
I see the OP's point, the guy in his Z was a scumbag. I also see the other guys poin about the OP needing to downplay the dbags wheels, lol...
