LAS VEGAS MEMBERS MEET
RED ROBIN
2575 S Decatur Blvd
Las Vegas, NV 89102
Phone: (702) 364-1858
On Decatur South of Sahara on West side of Decatur
Thursday February 21, 2008 7:00 till pm 9:00pm
With a bright red color scheme, enormous booths and TVs galore (even in the bathrooms), this loud, lively spot aims to make families feel right at home. The creative menu offers 22 different burgers--from teriyaki-marinated Bansai with grilled pineapple to the 5 Alarm with pepper jack cheese, jalapenos, salsa and chipotle mayo. Soups, salads, and entrees of fajitas, fish and chips and Cajun-spiced shrimp round out the casual American menu.

so yeah i've decided that these are the rims im getting. They arn't much lighter than stock rims, only by about 1 lb. but they look nice.And in a few years when i get that turbo, those few lbs won't help much =P plus im just doing street driving. anyway, here's a pic....it'll probably be a few months before i purchase them but at least i know what im getting now

yeah, i think im gonna go for 19x8.5 all around. i don't need to buy new tires now so id probably just have my current stock tires stretched until i need to buy some new ones. is that a good idea? i know 19 inch tires are generally more expensive than 18 inch or 20 inch just because its seen as a unique size. what are the downfalls of having your tires stretched???

if it really is that detrimental id have to go 18x8. its too bad they don't sell 18x8.5

anyway...yeah

i think stretched is ok
19's will look nice on your car.
plus i remember you saying you just normal street drive for the most part.
if yer going for looks, then fit the most gangster wheels sizes you can tuck away!
and roll the sheet out of your fenders!
and remember...

Island Burger.. thumbs up! Next time...

BTW... would like to express my thanks and gratitude to Mike for the hospitality and doing the springs today (even though it was a crappy, rainy, cold and windy day). Its sitting nice and from seeing how they look on Gil/Annet's former 8, I know they'll sit even nicer real soon. Oh, and special mention goes to Jason for bringing the air gun... (it was a PITA w/ the hand tools... ) I was planning to come back and watch the game w/ y'all but got stuck w/ "honey-do's"...


PICS coming as soon as i get her washed tomorrow...
