80 bucks for snowflakes to much?

Like the title says, is it to much?  No centercaps and no tires.  I like them anyway.

Or should I just get a set of pony's that a budy has for a little more..

I paid $200 for mine in good shape without tires with center caps.

that doesnt sound bad,, snowflakes seem to be kind of hard to clean though (between the fins)

well it sounds very reasonable to me but then again i had no luck trying to sell a set of 4 with nice center caps and 90% toyos on them for 120. i ended up putting them on my sport and throwing away the 14" stock sport rims. personally, i think the ponys would look nicer.

If you want ponies go with ponies. Its cool to see a bird or coug with snowflake rims, But it comes down to how do you want your car to look. Also I would still look into the ponies. I'll bet that you could sell them for more then you buy them. All that you would have to do would cleanthem up and selling them.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
