I'm having a serious moment of weakness.... I want to send my rear SVTPP wheels off to get widened to 11". BUT I have nearly perfect condition goodyear G2's still on there. I can't quite bring myself to peal off $800 worth of rubber and have them sit in the garage to put 315's on. The sensible thing to do is wait until the tires are bald- then widen 'em. But it's winter and they're off the car. I was at the UPS store and couldn't stop myself from buying boxes big enough to ship the wheels off..... help!

See- plenty of tread left!

Dont look for me to talk you out of it!

My car has 4500 miles on it and I dropped off my wheels to have my third set of aftermarket tires mounted today! The tires I took off the car had about 1000 miles on them!

If we let good sense stop us from spending money on our cars, where would we be?!
