Alright, I have enough money to do one or the other right now, but not both. New 17's with tires is going to cost me about $900. The NOS on sale at Jcwhittney will set me back the cost of the kit plus install, I'm figuring around $5-600. I have stock wheels which really suck, but they have plenty of tread left. I don't want to let the Jcwhittney deal pass by either though. What would you do? Honest opinions wanted. Thanks in advance.

How do you figure? you usually burn rubber starting from a low RPM.. any idiot who spray's NOS at a low RPM will have a new engine problem.. not a tire tread wear problem

The NOS will take that tread on your stock tires off real quick.
