New Member from SoCal *pics inside

Just wanted to make a quick intro thread. I've been a member for just a little over a week. I just picked up a 2007 TLs with 38,000 miles. The car had only one owner prior to me and came equipped with these 19 inch RonJon DT3's. I'm still on the wall about what suspension i will be running. Anyway..here are just a few pics...sorry for the crappy pics, it was way too bright out and not enough shade.

Haha! Yeah this thing is waaaaay too high! I need a drop bad! I look forward to learn more about these rides. I've been an avid enthusiast for awhile but new to the TL game so it should be fun......but expensive. hahaha...

Welcome Lank. Obviously, I like your Type S!

I got a simple drop with H&R Sports Springs and it made a HUGE difference in the stance and look of my Type S. Since the of the Type S is already very stiff, the Sports Springs really did the trick for approximately $245 (not including installation).

Nice and clean with low miles-what a find! I've had mine since '03 brand new and have 49,000+ on it. Just recently started working on mine. Congrats and enjoy. I am in the Southbay so might see you on the 405 parking lot. LOL

Great looking car! Love a silver TL with type-s taillights! I've been looking to get the H&R sports spring as well to give it that nice stance.

Welcome and congrats!

Those RJs aren't cheap. One less thing you have to buy

Thanks for all the feedback from everyone. I'm definitely thinking about doing h&r sport springs in the near future. As for the wheels, these things are not cheap what so ever! I researched the going rate of these and i think they are one of the more expensive rims RonJon carries because it is a 3 piece wheel. I dont really like the wheels myself. I'm actually considering selling them. If there is any interest let me know. THanks again for the feedback!

Congrats, and welcome! Personally I think the Ronjon wheels are nice and will look sweet once you drop your TL. Maybe hold off on trading or selling them until you drop your TL.
