Guys-

As the modding bug has bit me I am locked in an endless dilemma. Having more money in my pocket has only made life more miserable since I can't figure out what to spend it on

So here's the deal: I have birthday money... I have an MCS, aka "The Financial Silver and Black Hole" that looms in my driveway everyday. So the money is going into the car. I have enough for one of two things:

1. A 19% Pulley and new belt, with no money leftover (I have to rely on paychecks as usual for my income)

2. Wet Okole seat covers (front two only) and tires, which I need, as my front tires are down to 1MM. After 16K miles. I guess I drove kinda hard?. With this, I would likewise have nothing left over.

The real question is this: Whatever choice I make, the next modifications will not be able to go in until June, due to financial restraints and obligations. I am learning very quickly life is NOT a free ride that your parents give you when you're younger...

So if I don't get the pulley, I will not have in until June.

If I don't get the seat covers and tires, I will be stuck with stock seats and bald tires for the next month or so..

Any and all input is appreciated!

I wish I had that problem. Oh and there are gals on this forum too, some will give you a run for your money. I say go with the tires because I've done the gamble with no tread thing and even though I survived I woun't do it again!
What other mods have you already done.

 

Only an HAI and a boost gauge...and some cosmetics (no more badge, aqua 's' accents)

 

I'd say do the tires and hold off on the pulley, you may want to save the cash from the seat covers and do the pulley that much sooner. Plus I think you'll probably burn more rubber with a pulley on there anyway.

 

Its the mother in me that says do the tires so you have a car to mod in June

 

tires, no brainer, life will be miserable with 19% and bald tires

 

Tires would be the first thing! Not only do you need them but that is also a safety issue! I know how you feel, you want to get everything for the car at once! It happens to us all. It sucks, but look at it this way, if you were to do everything that you wanted, what else is there left to do? So it is good to do things within time. Keeps you going and wanting it more! Get the tires so you can enjoy the ride and save so you can get your pulley and other future mods!

think ill go with everyone else on this thread........go with the tires

 

tires... seats. hmmm.
tires... seats. hmmm.
tires... seats. hmmm.

Is this a serious question? Mom nailed it: tires now so you still have a car to mod in June!

 

HMMMMMMM....... I guess this is sort of retarded, get the tires, hold on the seat covers, saved the $250 towards a pulley and have a pulley within a month or 2... Thanks all, that wasn't so hard after all!

 

no prob

 

Rotate your tires...then get the pulley!!

 

Tuls-

The front ones have 1MM, the back ones have 5MM remaining...The time for rotating has come and gone my friend! No Biggie, I'll have the pulley soon enough
