Default FiveAxis Wheels in San Jose?

Where would you get FiveAxis wheels in the Bay Area?

Also, can you recommend an independent shop or dealer that would install F-Sport springs, shocks, sways and intake at a resonable price?

LOL... did you get some ideas at EOS v.7?

I think there is a toll-free # (for FiveAxis) in the brochures that were at the event; did you pick one up? They may be able to refer you to an authorized distributor or must be sole sourced through their factory.

For install:
Another Norcal Club Lexus recommended shop is EXACT and they even handed out discount coupons in the packet, with the limited quantity shirt as you rolled in.

"LOL... did you get some ideas at EOS v.7?" Maybe...

I was thinking the R6 in bronze.

Thanks, I think I remember seeing the coupon.

if your willing to drive to the city, there are some good shops here that can do the job without spending $300+ I don't know if this is a good price but exact gave me a quote to install coilovers/edfc for $500-$550. I got a quote here in the city for $180.

Hmmm, is this deja vu?

I just got my IS350 dropped at SonicMS in mountain view, they did an excellent job there and the price was very nice as well. 450 bucks including tein stechs, alignment, and install out the door. Ask for Darwin

Everyone that attended EOS7 this PAST Sunday got several discount coupons from our locally APPROVED VENDORS.

WORLD MUFFLERS, WHEEL TECHNIQUES, EIP, OMEGA WERKS, PHOTOSHOOTMYCAR.COM and EXACT MOTORSPORTS who gave out a coupon for 20% off of labor.

Thanks guys, I'll look into using Exact. It may take me awhile to organize everything if I want to do all the F-Sport changes and wheel/tire changes at the same time. I may have to break it up to make it happen. Maybe the suspension changes first while I put a few miles on the OEM tires...
