Get that GS3.

Get that GS3.

I would really really like one to be honest. If I can hold out until after the holidays, I'm sure all the good phones will be dirt cheap.

[coconutt]

Yeah there should be a deal for that phone after the holidays for sure. I believe the GS4 is coming the first or second quarter of the year.

[MommysLittleMonster]

I love how I don't even think twice to spend $500+ on a set of wheels, but I don't want to spend $50 to get my phone fixed.

[coconutt]

Wheel deals are there for a split second where as a phone will always be there regardless of deals unless its that time of the year.

It's so hard explaining that to outsiders.

"Why did you spend $600 on another set of wheels?! You already have three sets you won't use!"
:facepalm:

I did something Friday that I've never done before.


I sold set of wheels and didn't buy another set the same day.

I understand where they are coming from though, especially if you have multiple wheel projects already. Sure it's nice to have a bunch of wheels, and I guess if you have the disposable income for it then by all means. But I know I sure as hell would be spending money else where on things my car needs before I spent money on wheels I don't need.

I keep telling myself, "Okay, that's the last set of wheels I buy. Time to focus on building a motor and doing paint work."

Then some stupid deal comes along, and I cave.

On the bright side, it's always panned out to buy wheels when they pop up. I've never, ever lost money on a set of wheels/parts that I've bought. I bought my Evo wheels and NT01's with about $400 total invested. Two years and about 150 miles on them later, I sold them for $600. So, I can't complain.

Bahahahahahahahha

I wanna buy another set of wheels I want but I'm actually gonna buy another car cause winter is fast approaching.
I might still jump on that ae86 I posted, and clean it the fuck up.

My priorities are never straight when it comes to wheels > maintenance haha

I'll never understand buying stock wheels like that, unless you get them for like pennies, I don't see the point, at the end of the day they don't have great specs, and won't fetch a ton more than what they sold for. If you had 400 into them, and sold them for 600 in like a month, I could kinda see it. But after 2 years, what's the point?

You getting an AE86 as a winter car sounds like an absolute terrible idea.

I bought them because of their specs, actually. You have to remember- I didn't buy wheels back in the day for fitment- I bought them because they could house meaty tires and they were dirt cheap.

I had originally planned to use them as track wheels/tires, but I now realize that I hardly race my car anymore, and I'd rather have the cash. I would love to put some 235/40R17's under my car for proper stance, but it's just not in the cards. I'll rock my Works and work on my Etoiles when I get bored.

Getting a beat to shit AE86 at that is an awful idea.
