Re: What should I do with $1500

Well, after I get my shit back together, I need tires badly also. So, I voted tires. Besides, if you don't have good tires, you have terrible traction, therefore, you could damage the vehicle, and that is more expensive than a set of tires.

Plus, you need something to hold down all that horsepower on the road against those ricers.

Re: What should I do with $1500

im with tires.. cuz its the most important.. and misc repairs are always the ones that end up causing you big troubles..

ie oil leak=> you forget to fill up for a month=> run low on oil => broken car!

and oil leaks are nasty cuz oil eats up all the rubber shit it touches..


but hey! wheres the option for 'give ike the 1.5K so he can keep his maro?'

Re: What should I do with $1500

Lol, you missed one.... Donate it to the Red Death Ressurection Fund.

Seriously though... Tires and Rims and save the scratch for any little problems that need attention. I'd shop my ASS off and get a deal on some decent rims... don't go spending no $1000.00 on rims... that's a waste imo.

It wasn't but the guy who's car it was should have replaced them... I remember the article as saying they were retreads that were obviously dry-rotted.

Re: What should I do with $1500

Ya, tires are important. I need to go get me another job so i can get some new kicks for my bird. The front tires are okay for now, and the rear driver's side is looking good, but the rear passenger side tire is almost bald.

Re: What should I do with $1500

I agree, go for tires. I took out 16 feet of guardrail due to bad tires.
