that's what i'm doing, i did some basics and now i'm trying to get the car paid off before college, hopefully the rents will help me out, but i'd probably put the 500 toward car payments

Pretty sure you can get a set of either BASIC of Type Flex sus, by tein, for close to that, or a set of USED HA's. Those would be my suggestions.

Get I/H/E if you haven't already.

If you have that, get a V-AFC.
