Excellent choice and taste. Remember to take the sticker off.

It's a long story...

But yes, I did recently move from TX to CA...

Which LA? Los Angeles or Louisiana?

Anyway, I'm in Los Angeles now (Pasadena to be exact - check out the first picture...

)

I've heard they should be mounted opposite the wheel's valve stem, too - although I need to double check that.

Thanks James - I actually lost more than that... The stock lug nuts + locks weigh a combined 3.5 lbs, and the ones I'm currently using wiegh 2. The Rays lug nuts I'm waiting on weigh a little over 1 lb.

The spacers I was running weigh another 6. So removing the spacers saved me 6 lbs, swapping lugs will save me another 2.5, and the wheels drop another 14, for a grand total of 22.5 lbs or rotational weight!!! Oh, and I'm running Yokohama AVS ES 100's - 225/40/18 front, 255/35/18 rear, although I plan on swapping the rears to 265/35/18 soon.

Javier

if u do hit me up, i may be interested in the 255's

Nice set of wheels. You can never go wrong with Rays. I like how you detailed your "Lexus" calipers.

Nice pick on the tuner wheels, and I think it looks bettre without the sticker. I hope the sticker is not under its clear coat.

Nice Setup. I have been researching light rims for a bit and may go with the 19x8.5 PIAA Super Rozza's that weigh in at 23lbs. Any rotating mass savings will help in all aspects.
