Spoke to sales manager and he understood the problem and offfered me the choices for no charge
that's a nice touch on their part. good to find out you took care of your spare tire situation.

^^ Sorry to hear about your issues...

Glad to hear Lexus of Glendale stepping up on Customer Service.

- But we saw this coming months in advance... Lexus is basically selling the BBK with no spare tire solution...

Similar to the SC430 no spare tire deal, Lexus was at least supplying run flats..
But lots of unhappy drivers with harsh road feel..

I really like the F-Sport / Stoptech BBK upgrade, but you basically have to find your own solution for a spare wheel & tire..

So do you plan on driving around with a 5th F-Sport wheel & tire just sitting in your trunk cargo area??

or

Just call Lexus road side assistance to tow you home (when applicable)?.. in the event of another flat..

Hey Joe Z! Yeah, looks like I will need to carry the 5th around (they are even giving me a bag for it hahaha)
Don't want to have car towed for a simple flat tire in the future. If I drive around local, maybe I will just leave the 5th at home so I can just call up family member to bring it if I need it

I pray I get the car before Friday meet so I can meet up with you guys

Guppy Tea House is @ the corner of colima/azusa.
Right next to Tacobell. Mobil oil and unocal 76 is across the street kiddie corner to Guppy Tea House. It's just off the 60fwy and azusa.

I work starting from 9PM. I own the SC'ed black Accord with the BBS LMs, so holla when you guys get there, I'll try to hook you guys up.

You guys are coming at a rough *** time though (it's when all the people with big *** parties and car meets start happening), so please be understanding if **** doesn't get done "quick".

Yeah.. for those who are as low as ^, you guys want to make a right on Colima ( when you're coming up on Azusa ), and then try to get on to the left hand side of the road, where the first signal is. Make a U-turn and go up through the driveway.



Btw, miss IS300, I think I've parked next you your car before at Cal Poly. It's looks great!
