can you check out with both those items in your cart? that would probably work

From what I understand the option will come up once you're at the final check out screen, I'd feel safe calling and asking tomorrow. I'll keep this updated.

I'm thinking I might just end up going with PayPal, but sucks it's a hard pull with no reporting afterwards so no pros and cons to credit depending on payments haha.

i'd recommend RPF1 http://www.ft86club.com/forums/images/icons/icon14.gif strong for its weight compared to other rims that bend easily

I'd try to hold off on rent a wheel places. These places are just like cash loan advances, they charge you a bad interest rate and in the end you pay double for the wheels. I'd save as much as you can then if you HAVE to, put it on a low interest card, and pay it off as soon as possible NOT minimum payments. I made that mistake when I was younger, and am still trying to get rid of all the cards.

I didn’t read all the responses however financing wheels is just not a good idea imo. Wait until you can comfortably afford them.

i'm not a financial advisor but if you cant pay off wheels in 6 months, you shouldn't be buying it

Honestly, if you can't afford wheels upfront you shouldn't be buying them at all. They're not a necessity. Unless someone gets some crazy offer of no interest or a decent cash back reward, If you can't afford to pay it in full at time of purchase, you can't afford it.


And before some smart-alex makes a remark about financing a house, or CC's in general, those are different circumstances.


Those TE37s may look nice, but having the ability to make purchases without having to think about that $50 wheel payment every month is even better.

There was a bot (post was since deleted) that revived the thread. No one's at fault here.

Open up a credit card. lots of companies offering 15 months no interest and give you a cash incentive as well for spending x amount. but i advise against financing wheels.

I still blame the OP.

If you can’t buy anything for the car cash and still have a few months savings, you shouldn’t be buying anything cosmetic or performance. Maintenance is the exception because it’s a necessity for a properly operating vehicle. The idea of financing anything other than the car itself or needing to use a credit card for car parts that you want, is not a good idea at all, ever.
