Freaking performance bargains....

[hotrodalex]

I just spent $950+ on GY Wrangler MTRs for my Taco, $750 for BFGs on the SexiLexi and the Yoko S Drives as a set of summer tires on the MINI set me back over $650, and these are pretty run of the mill vehicles. Performance cars aren't cheap to maintain, it's just part of the deal--but worth it!

You bought all those tires at once?

I was looking at getting a Camaro SS when I got back to the US  until I saw the prices for 20" tires.  $1,068 every 9 months is rediculous, and there's barely any selection.  Thats one thing I love about those 16" X lites I used to have... $450 for great tires and about $300 for the value ones...

Someone from PM is a sportyaccordy thread fan I see :angry:

Still, I made an audible grunt when I saw the price of that 745i. The WORST part about that is an equally good condition 2002 330i goes for maybe 2k less... and an M3 goes for a little more... talk about bass ackwards depriciation
