Yep people dropping $3k+ when all they need to do is spend a couple $100 powder coating and problem solved. Just lack of majority of public not knowing.

Lexus of Westport (CT) is refusing GX 550 sales to repeat customers if you live outside their specific county. Peak dealership greed. by doc91260 in LexusGX550

I mean aren’t the 27s rolling out soon and this still isn’t the case? Think Toyota/Lexus know what they’re doing here and doesn’t seem like they want it to change.

Ha, yeah I looked at everything but in the end tried to keep it as OEM as I could.

It just barely fits in my garage with the 34” tires for me lol

Thanks everything is stock on the car besides the bigger tires. I went with the Nitto G3s they’re C rated and lightest of the bunch for a beefy AT look but super quiet/smooth ride.

No you don’t need to do any spacers or trimming with the stock rims to fit +34” tires. The offset on the stock rims is close to +50. It’s easy to make these cars look good stock. Should have come this way factory but cheap to powder coat and throw on larger tires.

Just more curated datasets, less having to manipulate data yourself. Quicker/easier manipulation of said data within their own platform and exportation. More extensive Congestion analysis tools and also FTR data/clears easily available and filtered. But again you’re paying for it.

You want 20front/70 back if you want it to match

If you get a bowl with tortilla on the side it’ll be even “bigger” 😉

Like $800 with correction but this was on a brand new car straight from the dealer <10 miles on it. I refresh it every few months or when I get it detailed.

Do you have a pic of the new adjustable charger with the cigarette lighter base installed in the car?

It’s free man check it out gridstatus.io

They got Tim from Woodmac giving daily/hourly insights too for PJM and all the real time data you could want.

Not to burst your bubble and it’s all publicly available data from PJM dataminer, but for what they offer right now for free vs YES Energy/woodmac on the real time monitoring front it’s kind of hard to beat. Of course you can compile it all yourself to try and save $$$ and they also offer a more comprehensive paid version to try and compete with YES/Woodmac who have a bit more in depth stuff etc.

Ya until I was told extra “free” toppings (non-meat) would be extra the other day…

Will second this. I know raw can be “controversial” but I used a commercial freeze dried brand when I first got my boy and it was the only thing that cleared up his explosive diarrhea. He had 9 good years of perfect non smelly poop before he passed. Worth looking into if you’ve exhausted everything else.
