These tires are so expensive and don't last that long, but they look better!

Aspect ratio on my tires are 45s, which I don't think are too bad. I just avoid potholes, etc. when I can to help prevent damaging the rim. There's enough tire on it to make the ride comfy in most circumstances.

I feel like this is a stealth bragging topic for OP to point out his newfound 1%er status along with his fancy Ford Fusion and high dollar rims.

Must be nice to be a Lead Mod.

Mine are 235 45R18 which has like three models, where the cheapest are these Eagle LS-2s which seem pretty garbage tbh but fuck spending the $180-200 a tire that the next model price costs. Probably should just bite the bullet with some better ones but meh. >_>

Fuck no, I miss the old $50 tires my 2004 Grand Am used. =P

Yeah, the number one problem with the big rim epidemic you see on cars now is the sticker shock when it comes time to replace your tires. My stock and current size is 245 45R18 on upgraded Michelins. Cost a pretty penny for a set of 4, but I'm quite happy with the product.

Of course, when it comes time to replace them, my wallet will again feel the pain.

low profile is kind of standard on a lot of sedans/coupes now. they are truly expensive garbage and the tires do require replacement way too often. i wonder if you would save money in the long run by switching out your rims without making the car look atrocious. seems like it might be doable because your make/model was optioned without them.

Low profile rims stopped being a thing when I moved to the mountains.

Error, arent you 30? And youre driving around with low profiles? Are you one of the guys who has to drive around the speed bumps at the mall? Also, do you own or wear gold chains?

Have you even looked at a car in the last decade?

A 1993 Buick Regal on 30 inch rims is a poor investment.

That would be weird yeah. My 2014 car is worth substantially more than just the tires/rims. =P

Nice car lol

Thanks. I really love the way Fords cars look as-of late. That front end is nice and Deep Impact Blue is fucking beautiful. I just wish the Ford dealership I got it from wasn't a bag of dicks. They gave me such a negative experience over the years that I refuse to go back there.

I'm 75% done with my loan on this sucker though. No interest through Ford's credit... Just a 16 months or so to go. Hope the car doesn't fucking start falling apart because it's gonna be nice to not have that car payment anymore. It's gonna be out of the extended warranty in a few months too. Which I only needed once... so far.

I will probably avoid buying BRAND new moving forward. Get some low mileage used car like everyone recommended I do. =P

yeah a lot of guys do this buy low mileage used cars, but imo it's kinda rare to find a low mileage used car that is almost as good as a new car, but you get what you can afford.
