Opinions: New Tires/Rims or GoFastGoods
I ran across a deal on a set of 2008 GT500 Rims( take off 0-miles) for 950$. Which i thought was a great deal. They are the Alu 18's with the goodyear supercar tires(285 wide rears). Right now the only tires i have are my snow tires and a set of MT DR's that i drive around with now. My debate is if i should spend the $$ on the rims/tires or should i spend it on something like a O/R Hpipe and a Zex Nitrous kit. Im trying to base my decision on the use of the car. Its not a DD and last year i only drove it on the weekends Except for taking it to the TnT's during the week. I used it as a street/strip car and put over 400 1/4 mile passes on it last year alone. During winter i decided i didnt need the car quicker and id keep an eye put for a set of tires just so i can use it as a DD again. Now i cant make up my mind. When i take it to the track i will always have wished that i put on the extra parts so it would be quicker. But then again, the car isnt going to move without any tires so i should probably get them because they are a wear item and will be needed sooner or later. Any imput or ideas? Im not really limited to a budget, but in an economy like this id like to keep a chunk in the bank just incase of job loss etc, so doing both is not the best answer. Any other ideas are welcome. -Jon

First how are the DR's holding up? If they are worn and need to be replaced soon get new DR's and the performance mods you suggested....sounds like a track car for the most part.... JMO
