Those are the exact tires I got! But... After shipping, install, alignment and what not you're looking at damn near $1000. I've got 35x10.50s on my Wrangler and those only cost me $550 and last almost 35K miles.

Mods, and MODS , But what really kills me is that I want to do more mods, but my other two hobbies, or say collection's are the worst . I collect Steelbook Blu-ray movies, Which are'nt to bad , because they are released overseas mostly and I will not pay the insane price for them or inport them , so that is cool because here in the US they only release a few so I can keep up , But the Damm movie studio's (Warrner Brother's) Just released 20 of these to Best Buy for Exlc. at $15.00 ea , Yeah do the math , then to top it off another 3 more this month , I'm dying , not to metion I also keep up with Audio Fidelity 24Kart Gold Master Recording cd's and SACD... Is there no end ... Then here come's Car shows and next week is Camaro Nationals , Man I need more $$$$$$$.....LOL

+1 for gas.

I remember when gas was $.98 a gallon. That would be $16 a fillup instead of like $55. Imagine how much money would be saved over the course of a year. I usually have to fill up every week & a half at least.:upset:

For me it's insurance is #1 as well. I've got a 17 year old (Tori) still living at home, and has to be on all three cars. My monthly is $385 for the next million years ... Arrg !!!

Your insurance company should be able to take the 17 year old off of the Camaro...unless they actually drive the car. In that case, your screwed. I'm in the same boat with a 16 YO.

When my son was living at home it didn't matter if he was not listed as a driver on a particular car, each car had a primary driver. All other houshold members were secondary. There was no way to completely say he did not drive a particular car.
