No, I disagree. Gotta listen to this dude's advice below:

A good wife should be able to 'manage' her husband's spending impulse. Especially if the income is tight. All this toys are temporary, guys will want more. Where is the limit? Remember when you're married, you have other responsibilities to your wife (and kids).

Btw, good looking rims. Always love 5 spokes.

Nice rims man! Personally, I plan on never getting married so that means more money and time to spend with my cars and video games.

These wheels are financially responsible. They look nice and won't break the bank.
That's what I'm going for. It always better going to bed with the same women every night then living in a house full of guys. Or I guess thats just me

discussion is correct vs then getting "permission". its not 50/50 its one sided control. which i dont agree on. but nice rims like always

It'll look crazy good after you drop it. Be prepared to rub the front inner fender during parking lot turns tho. Back will be perfect, no need to touch.

I have the exact size / fittment on my car. Dropped on Supra H+R springs.
