How much is too much to spend on wheels???

Alright, really close to closing a deal on what will be my first mod....wheels. But now I'm having second thoughts on spending too much for wheels.

What is the maximum you would spend on wheels for your TL?
Keep in mind the wheels I want are 19x 7.5, 3 piece, forged, custom built and custom painted with polished lip.

The TL is not a car to put knock offs on so that being said $3500 with tires is the most I'd spend. I think that's a decent price for some really nice light wheels.

I paid $3500 for my Racing Hart C2s with tires. That's definitely not a bad price to spend on a $30K car.

Welp, I drive the shi+ outta my car. I drive a lot of miles in a lot of conditions. I didn't go for super expensive wheels, because I was bound to screw them up...
I ended up scratching the original wheels and got some ultra lightweight ones that I bent all four of...Now I've got ICW's that I paid $710 for and can abuse the stew out of...
