Well...... I'm in the Raleigh area. Fort Sumter is also a little over 4hrs. away, but if it turns out to be the location, I'll still do my best to attend. Wilmington or Greenville would be easily doable.

It's borderlining too far for a drive. haha. I used to do 8 hour trips no problem, but now it's easier to just fly to most places. Drove to Myrtle last year and it was a bit of a pain. Getting old? Or just value my time more..

So how about April 15? I guess I don't have too much preference on the location, but if it's 4 hours away, I'd rather do it near a cool place of sorts where I can take the woman for a tour the next day and/or just see some sights.

Fairly new G owner here. Depending on how far away (I live near kiseliok) it will be, I may be able to join.

I posted my IPL on this thread a long time ago. Hey POPE, I'm in the Durham/Raleigh/Cary/Chapel Hill area. I forgot how to post a picture on here so I hope my image shows up. You guys can also check out my youtube video of my G.

Nate, make it a date weekend! Plus, your gf can keep my gf company.

Would April 8 work better for people, since there might be some traveling / family time on the 15th?

That might actually work and sounds fun! That weekend is already filled on my calendar, but may be able to reschedule those plans when it gets closer.

Thanks r2dmax! They're Velgen VMB7 20x9 and 20x10.5 I'm selling them if you're in the area and interested.

I'm in Charlotte, kind of wanted to stay with 19s for the balance between a little aggressiveness, some sidewall and a little comfort. But if I came across a good deal...
May be a bit too aggressive for my sedan though

Without a bit of lowering, 20s will definitely look somewhat awkward.
Nate (Entcee) just lowered his sedan so maybe that'll help you decide if that's something you want to consider?
Otherwise 19s will be a better choice for looks and ride comfort.

Definitely planning to lower. My plan is to get Tein Street Basis coilovers, but I still want decent comfort, plus in this area they have torn up just about every road for the eleventybillion projects they started simultaneously... SMH so I don't want the hassle of TOO low a sidewall

@Entcee - Looking good. What suspension did you use?

Tein Basis w/ F&R SPC camber kits. The ride is very close to stock.

You clearly have never lived up north. :P
Charlotte roads, even in the current state, are smooth as butter compared to OH or PA. haha
