I have to say that I don't like those rims. I have seen them on TL and they look too plain. Its just my personal opinion. Perhpas it will look better on your white TL.

You must be still to young though to recognize the benefits of saving money. Good luck though.

haha about the complex thanks but no i don't think i'm better than anyone,, i just work hard, make my money, know how to save and know how to spend well.
is $1400 alot of money,, not to me. i make that in a week (work for Verizon Wireless)
i beleive if u work hard then you play hard,, so i do,, if u had the choice to buy something brand new with a warrenty vs. buying something used and not knowing what has been done with the product,, wouldn't you buy the new out of the box? heck yea you's would. here's a better example,, would you wanna buy a new cell phone or a used cell phone that was in someones nasty ear and who knows where else it's been? lol

I'd want to buy a new cell phone.
But then again how often do you rub you ears against your rims?

Edit: I forgot to give my opinion on the rims.

They suck. But it doesn't matter, you can spend another $1400 next week right?

the nasty ear part of that should be compared to a used set of rims that someone more than likely hit many potholes with, thus the rims could be bent, chrome pitting, cracked!

and thank you for your kind words!
you are absolutly right,, i can and would if i had to buy new ones,, money is not an issue here,, for some people yes it is,,, is it my fault that not everyone makes a decent living for themselves? NO.... so why knock me? because i do? ,, but i'm more than confident with my purchase.. to each his own right?

Rims look nice. Is your car already dropped? If not you should probably look into picking up a set of springs or coilovers so your not 4x4. Post pics once you get the rims.

Well, since we're on the topic...

I work for LG. Buy a new cell phone? Good luck. Almost all "New" cell phones in the US are refurbished used cell phones from Japan being that they are released there first. But hey, who am I to argue...

Seriously though, no one cares where you work or how much you make. And when you get cocky, people wont care about your car either. Just play nice on the forums.

EDIT: Are they on the car yet? PICS???

WDP and chrome is always a good choice. But its gonna be a 4x4, so your gonna need to lower it asap.
