      3 piece wheel cost - is it worth it for a street only car??

      I keep looking at the all the 3 piece wheels, especially when Frank keeps posting that he has a sale on Forgelines. The thing I'm trying to debate though is if the cost of 3 piece wheels would be worth it for a car that will be 99% of the time driven on the streets. I'm leaning towards getting a set of Billet Specialties (likely the Fast Lane) as they have a 17x11 for under $400. I can get tires and wheels for under $2200. I've also looked at the DriverzInc's new Splitter wheel and for a package they are about $500 more for the tires I want. I want to build this car right this time, but am wondering if the extra cost would be worth it. I know the wheels are lighter and easier to change backspacing down the road, but once I have them right, I can't see myself changing them. What do you guys think. Is it worth the extra cost and why?? Thanks in advance.
