I was just qouting cheaper wheel and tire combo, is there more expensive ones...sure... but we all know that ebay stuff will end up on these in the next few years as the prices come down. Not saying that the stuff on ebay is bad.. I made more HP( about 20 hp more) with my supra TT (94) with my cheap ebay downpipe and exhaust than my friend with a HKS\RMM downpipe... I paid 150 for both, he paid 1900 for his... I win... we dyno'ed them both on both cars and got the same results each time.
I know that I will be getting a great deal on wheels and tires because I know how to find awesome deals on stuff I want, and I'm willing to wait till I do to pay for them in cash. And I use to own 4 supras over 13 years... 19inch tires are more like 10k per set( if your lucky 12K).. Tire rack was on speed dial...LOL

I thought the idea of modding a car was to do it in stages so you can play with it as you go. which makes it a project. buying all the modded parts out right is just plain foolish imo.
