If you are building a cars strictly to be judged at shows, and not for your own personal enjoyment, GTFO.

How come just about everyone I see on here with high end wheels have cheap tires? Yeah I have cheaper wheels now, I also have michelin pilot sport PS2 tires. I also paid $400 shipped for the rota's and I wont have these wheels long enough for anyone on her to even see these on my car in person. It's entertaining to read how people on here judge you by what kind of wheels you have or how much you spent on them especially when we're all driving scion tc's..

Of course we will judge, if I wasn't judgmental then I wouldn't have the desire to make my tC stand out from every other stock tC on the road, or in this case, every tC that comes stock with those Grids.

My wheel choice and mod taste is what makes my tC miles better than the average user's tC.

Kevin, MOAR PICS NAO!

i rock 452's or azenis .... for my needs its fantastic for the price.

now, tires degrade and loose value the more you use them... but not nearly in longevity comparisons to the depreciation value and time of a nice wheel... so honestly... what would you spend your money on... the best and most expensive tires only to have to replace them every so many year(s)/moth(s)/ .... or a nice set of wheels that dont degrade or depreciate in comparison over a period of time.

Talk about my rota's all you wish, I like them and im sure if I wanted to be all flashy my bf would put another set of expensive wheels on my car. And for my tires, I get them for next to nothing. Wheels arent an issue when my bf's spare room looks like this
