I think the wheels would be a better investment than the plate, they'll help re sale in the future.

the thing with the plate is that they actually belong to the car, loads of grey areas like if the car gets written off can potentially lose the plate too etc.
my current plate is insured for this not to happen
also, M17RTY is up for £6000
is that with the same insurer that the car cover is with?

People who spend that much on a plate is insane,or need to get out more.
Im having a plate soon for £250 all in with my initials thats the most id ever spend on one.even if i had the money to waste £2000 on a plate is just stupid.

The plate will go up in value, the alloys will not.

2k isnt a months wage so its not big money, plus they go up in value on average 12.5% per year
