I don't understand the whole

my sister in law has dyslexia as well, she hates reading and writing

a bad thing... no one thinks its a bad thing, no one thinks its a good thing either, it is just stupid to put parts on a car that are worth more than the actual car specially when they don't contribute jack shit for the reliability or durability of the car, its just for aesthetics, its essentially lipstick on a pig.

Wider and bigger diameter wheels can improve handling.

For what reason exactly?

>buy camera body
>$700
>buy good camera lens
>$1400

Ask photofags, they know this problem

Not the same thing.

>Wider and bigger diameter wheels can improve handling.
placebo, like audiophiles say more expensive cables make a difference on digital sound.

>For what reason exactly?
that is money you will never recover, the car can have gold plated rims worth 10000 bucks, if the car is worth 500, 500 is what youll get.

>15in wheels
>Low profile tires
What did he mean by this? A wheel with a ridiculously small overall diameter?

Absolutely the same thing, especially pertaining to the tires on those wheels. Just like a camera lens, wheels are specific to the body/car. They can be a good investment, because if you aren't a shitty driver, they shouldn't suffer damage over time and you could easily keep a single nice set of wheels your entire life.
Wheels are the best thing you can replace to change the look of your vehicle. Also reducing wheel weight dramatically improves braking, acceleration, and turn in.
Then I know guys with $2000 worth of tires on cars worth less than $1800.

I personally only spend a fraction of the cars value on wheels. Like 1/4th of the cars value.
But I understand why people spend more.

>You could've bought a whole other civic

literally this.
