I was. I have dropped about $13k.
Not all of it is for upgrades though. Some of it also goes to fixing upgrades that went out, and others go to just wanting a new look.
For example, I am on my sixth set of tail lights, fifth set of wheels, sixth set of rear drop kit, second DVD double DIN, fifth set of front tint, third grille, third set of HIDs, second audio system, and so on.
It was an expensive hobby. Then again, what hobby is cheap?

I'm surprised that number isn't higher Neo with the amount of rims you've had

I don't count the extra rims if I've sold one set to get another set.

I don't count them either! Why would I if it is not currently on the car?
According to my insurance coverage report for mods, I have approx. $10k on the Tahoe. The other $3k is the money it has cost to change, fix, upgrade, and sell stuff in between. Changing wheels (the 26s specifically) was running me about $600 every time I would do it. That's why I stopped a year ago. The market for 26s is very slim. That's why I had my last 26s until late March last year, 3 months after I installed my current set. I decided to hold them and wait until tax returns were coming in because before that people were just low balling me and wanting quality wheels at Velocity wheel price.

I was agreeing with you and just explaining to Jacob why you wouldn't include it...
