If you think I'm ranting about the price alone, you're misunderstanding me.

No, I got my CE's for US$2,040-ish staggered 17x8.5 & 17x9.5 for my s14
That was sometime in 2007.
My gripe isn't about the cost of wheels so much as the high price hike within 5 years.

Not like there's no middle ground between knockoffs & ritzy 3k wheels.
I honestly doubt moving from Volks to a more 'modest' set of Advans is going to jeopardize my life or throw my SOW lap times by anything meaningful.
It's not a drastic 'all or nothing' situation!
