I'll be at C&C tomorrow morning with a few Lexus vehicles; RCF, RC350, IS250, and GS350. Each have some extra goodies installed but I don't want to give anything away 
Come by and say hello!

I can't wait for the June one. It is the first one I will finally be able to bring Enzo to. He will have his last set of shots the week before.

The first weekend in June is Springfest for everyone's information. 
Hyperfest had a hell of a lot bigger turnout than I thought there would be.

Aired Out TLS
I'm back from my Thailand vacation guys. It was a great experience. And so hot, temps in high 90s and up the whole time I was there.
I'm still adjusting to the different times and kind of tired from all the traveling. Plane rides , taxi rides, crazy traffic out there, getting thru lots of security check points etc.
I so happen to rack up 800 pictures from my sony digital camera I took, so I will upload some for you guys later.
So the TL didn't start when I was gone, told my girl to start it up every other day, she missed a couple days. So I probably just need to jump start it.

Went and checked out the new Midwood Smokehouse that took the place of Sticky Fingers and it was deeeelicious. They don't have their liquor license yet so the ticket was 30% off. I ordered the bar b que plate with mac and cheese and the special crinkle cut fries (special as in they are different than normal crinkle cut fries), which I recommend to everyone. And then the banana pudding was amazing.

Pretty much...I misread it the first time, too 
Everybody has a place, I'm sure. I got mine done at Sun Stoppers (S. Tryon location).

I mean...I'd LOVE ZE40, but if I spent that much on wheels I'd literally wipe out my savings. At least Advans are still in the mid-2's brand new.
I still ran it by J...but it was answered quickly with a "HELL no."

Those wheels look good Evan. You are right though I love the ZE40 too but they definitely break the bank a bit.

Well you made the RPFs look really good on your car so I'm sure whatever you do it will look good as well.

Yeah if I was still doing all metal wide fenders then I'd def be doing that exact sizing in ZE40s.

No more wide fenders for the car?

Newp. It was taking a reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally long time to get them (I'd still be 3-4 months out even now) + J & I had some things pop up financially and I just had to get my deposit refunded.
Overall I think it's for the best though. The installed pictures I've seen so far show some pretty glaring fitment issues, and I think I'd just rather do it all metal when the time comes.

Advans ftw. The RS is my favorite.
That's a 18x9 +22 btw. 215/40 and 255/35s.

Yeah the sizing I want is not quite that aggressive, but they will be 18s so they'll look similar.
The RZII pushes all the right buttons for me, cause it's a split 5 design but it's really subtle. Similar to the RS but different.
