So I only spend $3,300 on my wheels and now I'm budget minded?

If I'd been sold on the looks of the Fikses, I would have found a way to justify the cost, I'm sure, but damn it's hard to justify $4,000+ for a set of wheels you're not even sure you're going to like.

Jim you are so right? Dude I am the same way. I have and had the money to buy all kinds of expensive ****. But why, when you can have something like alot better for less. The price on things doesnt mean everything.
