Just another Noob!



I scooped her up from a little old lady about a month ago from my service department. Changed the wheels and and threw her on the road.

I am seeing lots of other cars with the TLX wheels. Wonder what TLX owners are running on their cars?

Congrats.

Love the screen name.

When I was a kid, I wanted to be two things 1) jew 2) White.

Sadly, accomplished neither so far, in life.

Sadly, wasn't able to accomplish that either. Was just that way, genetically.

I actually scooped these from a customer that purchased the accessory wheel when they bought the car. He said he had no use for the wheels and gave them to me free of charge. I got really lucky.

Welcome, goliathgrouper...awesome. When I heard they dropped back to 5 x 114 on the TLX, I couldn't wait for someone to put them on the 3G. Next step would be for a TLX person to find a set of 18 x 8.5" Aspecs and see what that does for the car.

Looking forward to more posts and pics!

2012 Wagon...you need to join us in Ramblings...your sense of humor would be embraced there.

18 isn't exactly big, now in the automotive industry 19 is the standard for most sedan being in the TLX class.
