Haha, no problem.
I'm definitely in the same boat as you.
Being 19 it gets hard to do it right the first time sometimes but its definitely worth it.

I know how you feel, im the same way with my jeep lol and go to the junk yard and see if you can find a set of tires or even check craigslist, theres really good deals around, you just have to look for them, sometimes finding them is harder then it sounds though

i got 33s and can still spin them with stock gearing and i have good speed down the highway too. it just all depends how much you wanna spend and if you really want high end speed with a big lift and big tires.
