:tup: I got you beat! (finally for once!) I put about half of that on my first year of ownership :stirthepot: :eek: :wtf2:

PS - to the OP, you're a 'struggling college student' but yet you have a brand new 2014 Z?

Might I suggest you trading in the Z for a Sentra/Altima/Juke and then after college jump back into the Z after you're not struggling anymore?

I doubt it. Thay're too narrow. Why not just wait until you can do it right?

I can vouch for waiting. Either save up and get some brand new wheels and/or tires. Or look in your area for some used. I guarantee you once you get the mod bug you're going to want to go wider than 225/245 width.

I, myself found a set of volk te37 19x9.5 19x10.5 for $1000 in my area so I'm pretty optimistic on finding deals. If you absolutely cannot wait your best bet would be to look at some XXR's or maybe some Varrstoen's or other replica wheels. Either way I would recommend to wait it out. Good luck on the search!

If I were in your situation I wouldn't spend a dime modding my car until I graduated and got a steady paycheck.

Honestly, go spend your time and disposable income learning to drive the car. It's a lot more car than an Eclipse and it's RWD. Go AutoX the car. It's fun and you learn a lot.

Perfect.

Honestly if you have to get rid of the stock wheels buy a set of the sport Rays. You can pick up a set with tires around $1k. Then save your money for a real diff and decent brakes.
