$4k...what do to?

if you had $4k what would you do with the money if you had to spend it on your e92...? i was thinking some 360 forged rims, but then i could get a JB3 and a front lip and have money left over.

It really depends on what you're looking to do. You can get body parts (lips, spoiler, etc.), a processor, and a set of nice VMR cast wheels with tires for about $4k. If you're looking to get a set of forged wheels then that alone will cost you about $4k+ tires. We have some very nice sets in stock so let us know if we can help out.

Seriously, Go invest it in something other than car parts right now. How much do you have in your savings account right now besides that $4k?

I would go with a good set of coilovers and then figure out your budget for wheels/tires with the remaining funds. Even a $5k set of HRE's will look like crap if the car is sitting as a 4x4 IMO.

Get some VMR wheels V710, VB3, V714, or V715s, have plenty left over to get some sport springs and some kind of lip

go buy some undervalued stock like Bank of America (BAC). I have done quite well with BAC when it goes down to 20 and bounces back up to 30.
