O.k., who on here is GUILTY!!?? 
C'mon, go out in that garage, gather them all together, take a few snaps and POST 'EM UP! .... because everybody knows the FIRST step in recovery is admitting you have a problem ....
I for one, am the type of addict that will buy a set of wheels for a 'future' car that I don't even own ... anybody got some wheels like that?
Oh, I guess I should ''grease the wheel' here
How about this pair of 'deep six' fuch's that I JUST SOLD after lugging them around for .... wait for it .... 12 YEARS!! Although I did make 400% on them

To the poorhouse, most likely ... 
Doood. I was driving a Transporter when you were just a glint in your fathers eye ... I put an oval/semifore into the Lagoon one dark and stormy night because I was too busy looking for the 'J' I'd dropped on the floor ... But, I digress, as usual ... 
Yeah, I'm a Samba guy .. but the rest of the stuff I'm selling currently is all pre-A Speedster/Roadster stuff.
The guy who bought those wheels, Greg Banfill, has his business here in Santa Rosa where I live. You probably know him .... here's his website:

Talking about wheel whoerding. I've imported a custom set of magnesium wheels about 10 years ago for my then-stock class supercharged MR2. They would work on a Miata as well. So there's a set of 14" 8lb Watanabe-like magnesium wheels floating around somewhere in Northwest where I ended up selling them.

This seems pretty normal to me. I've done it a few times.

Harvey also does polishing but he specializes in factory anodize and those cool RSR finish wheels you see on the Singer cars .. I REALLY like the look a lot :-) He can take your deep Six wheels and re-rim them to 911R 7" or even go RSR wide ...

honestly, my priorities must be screwed up. I guess I'm in to beer whording, as long as that includes drinking and restocking frequently.
You know, ya worry that you have cellared it too long, gotta open it to verify...then it's just wasting it if you don't consume.
Damned viscious cycle really
