Should have just asked for a GT4 as your gift. That way you could afford to remove your wheels. Have you thought about the CL's yet? It takes more than a simple socket wrench.

About $14k for two front rotors alone. Don't forget to add labour, replacement caliper bolts, etc.:-(

Can't be one to worry about costs if you're gonna drive this car as intended. Buy it. Drive it. Maintain it.

Research maintaince costs before purchasing any car especially high end ones. Next you budget in these costs over the years of potential ownership. If you can't afford to replace tires you might want to rethink owning a GT3 until you can. What did you expect a set of tires to cost on a 150k vehicle ?
i just don't understand how people buy houses and cars they have no business buying.
If you can't afford $2k for tires you can't afford this car. I mean come on... $2k isn't all that much. I haven't paid less than $1500 for a set of tires in years. It's not $20k.

mpss is fine for your use.
after a few sets of tires, you wont be shell shocked with $2000 tires.
some of us burn through 2 sets of tires per weekend.

Gosh, there really seems like there are a lot of angry people here. I just wanted tire advice. For the record, just because I didn't actually pay for the car, doesn't mean I didn't earn it or deserve it. My benefactor got it for me because they believed I deserved it for things I had accomplished.
