No, read more closely -- I didn't want to have to REPLACE the OEM rims.

The sport package is an extra $3K. But the full replacement cost for this theft -- 4 sport rims, 4 sport tires -- was $8K.

I'd not want to spend $8K putting the same shoes back on the car. But if comprehensive insurance was involved, I'd have to.

See what I'm getting at? The sport option locks you in to a number of pretty expensive replacements. The 3K extra you pay up front is only the opening ante...
