How did you talk yourself into spending $3500 for volks and tires?

Which time, first or second?
There's no greater feeling than walking up to your Z/G and seeing those
beautiful rims shining back at you, people break their necks checking out
your car. Volks or Works are worth the price and you can't quit saying to
yourself, "Damn good job!"

I mean, if I buy them and in a year need to sell them for the money... as long as I didn't beat them to hell, I wouldn't lose that much money right?

IT takes time, but they will come. The most common offset for GT-s are 9.5 +17 10.5 +18 in 19". These are also the most aggressive. The only challenge would be the color. But they will pop up. Just give it some time. Good Luck.

What you spend your money on is completely up to you. No one can tell you what has value and what doesn't, that purely based on your own opinions. In all honesty, with the way things are in this country, I would personally save that money unless I had extra cash to burn and knowing it would not effect me financially. Price has also already gone up on all the wheels but I have some GTS. coming in on the old pricing.

There are plenty of people that will ask how you talked yourself in to spending $30,000 on your car. It's all relative. I don't own a high-dollar set of wheels on this car, but the SSR Professors on my previous car weren't cheap either; still, it's what I wanted, and I could afford it. Not much else it to it, really.

Well, for me it was easy, i knew my work bonus would cover it. I waited 3 months to get them from Japan. When they came it they were perfect. Beautiful. Had them mounted and i was set. 3 weeks later my new car was vandelized and my wheels stolen right in front of a detail shop that was going to detail my car the next day. What was i going to do get some cheaper wheels and feel bad over it? F*&^ NO, i made it rain and ordered another set. Its an expensive hobby. You drive a nice car. Don't be a dumba$$ and buy some POS cheap wheels. Its your car, why be sad everytime you look at your car knowing you can have wheels that are so much better? For me it was an easy decision. I know $4500 is a lot of money. But you bought a sports car baller might as well enjoy it.
