Alright so I'm 18 and I have a 04 Camry. I work at McDonald's so I'm strapped for cash. I'm at 180k miles. I was thinking of getting new wheels since I need new tires anyway. But instead I wanna do some low key stuff that would improve my car overall. I spent about $100 getting 10 quarts of Toyota ATF IV, filter and changed the oil with new (good) filter.
I don't have tint so I guess I can start with that ... What else should I get to help the longevity of my ride long enough I can get my bachelor's and hopefully eventually get a Miata ?

Don't bother with tint unless you like and or don't mind getting pulled over. Cops will find any reason to pull you over, just so they can mention your tint later on and add to any ticket they could give you.
Or if you do decide to do it, make sure it is at least 10-20% above the legal maximum. So like my state has a 35% max on the top six inches of the windshield, so do like 55% instead.
But that's my state. (Oregon)
Otherwise, for $400 you aren't gonna get anything more than used wheels. But I'd say keep the car stock and hold onto the $400 in case of an emergency, trust me on this OP.

Don't get new wheels. That $400 will disappear instantly just by tires alone.
I mean, if you could get some used wheels with high-tread tires on craigslist - then sell your OE wheels it - could be done. Otherwise get some $50 all-seasons mounted and an alignment. Maybe some brake pads and a brake fluid change if you need it.

Fuck no.

Maybe you should hang onto the $500 you stupid fuck.
Nobody should wonder why the poor stay poor. The minute you come into some cash you're looking for the best way to blow it.

Maybe Ron Paul was right. The lottery is immoral.

if you need tires just get tires. don't waste money on wheels, it's a camry

>no wheels Fuck no, just get new tires for the factory wheels Use whatever money is left to do maintenance

Put it into crypto and buy something nice when that $500 turns into $50000
