no way, forget it now...thos rims were so cheap...all the ones i bid on were 18"X9.5 replica Z06 and ZR1 rims...set of 4...i bid around $200 on all of them and lost....shipping was $120...u cant beat that price. Anyways mom parents convinced me to sell the car before i go away to college. No more engine swap...too much money...and its easier to go out and buy a new car..

yea i think so, it depends on what school i go to...I live 2 minutes away from the ocean on the Southeast coast of Florida...So, If i go to the University of Central Florida, I could probably take my current car, because that University is only 3-4 hours away. It's in orlando. My other choice for college is Florida State University which is in the Florida pan handle. so thats a goo 8 hours away...My mom doesnt think i should chance it even if i go to UCF. So We will see

Im actually leaning towards a 4.6L mustang or a newer camaro. I dunno yet, my options are pretty much open...Except for **** ricers. F that/

Couldn't agree with you more.




Sux about the auction, that happens to me all the time, too. Usually while I'm at work the auction ends, and someone will outbid me at the last second.

ebay owns, except when people bid like within the last minute of the auction and win.

secondly, the best way to use ebay auctions is to find something you're willing to pay almost full price for that's half price. $200 or so for those rims is extremely cheap, there's prolly a handful if not more people out there that'd eat that auction up to full price if it had a lil more time to go.
