I'm 1/2 way there!

I'm saving up for some new wheels and I'm 1/2 way there! The rims are black opal 17x7.5 Kosei RT Penta's and the tires are 215/45/17 Kumho Ecsta 712's. They're going to cost me around $800. Do you guys think I can hold out and not buy anything else? Last time I had almost 5/8 saved up and I ended up buying an AEM CAI, a DC Sports front strut bar, Brembo cross-drilled/slotted rotors, and AEM/Nissin brake pads. Convince me not to buy the next round of mods! I'm weak! [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

LoL, actually having someone else hold your money (that you can trust or that is in debt of you) is like having a free bank account. Why not put it in someone else's safer hands if you think you can't hold on to it? I think you can. Just hold on to it, Grey! You'll be glad you did! Think of NOTHING except those rims, and if you come to the point where you're like, "Ah, I want this... I'll just be using $20 bucks for this..." NO! DON'T DO IT! JUST SAY NO TO EVIL CONSCIENCE!

Whoa! Why don't you spend all your money on your car? I would. You do have a ton of lesser priced mods though. lowboy19's ride

Thanx for the support guys. I got rims on my mind!
