Ripped the beads on both my rear tires and order the wrong size tire for the front I've got one 235 and one 245...

How the hell does that happen? They mounted my 215s on the rears just fine. What size tires are you meaning to run? I'd assume 235s.

[UltraSchnell34]

Yea 235s and had 2 flats in Utah where people had never heard of a 19" tire so i had to stay the night while they shipped some in... then i had to strap 2 tires to my roof so i could bring them back to performance Wheel and Tire i'll post some pictures

[Greedo]

That sounds like a mess.

[UltraSchnell34]

Ya it was seeing as i had hotel reservations for Thursday night and after waiting for tires then getting the worlds scariest tire mount and balance we left at 6pm and got to Vegas at 12:30am. Icing on the cake was performance trying to tell me that they didn't damage the tires...

Oh they didn't damage the tire or screw anything up!

[UltraSchnell34]

Haha did a better job than performance. Minor damage to the rim from the blowout

[Gdlaszako]

My rim is currently welded together due to something before I got them. big lump on the inside.

[Greedo]

The sedan guys are dropping like flies from their own event.

[SomeDayAS4]

Hey it was planned we didn't really want to meet. Haha we need an all around avant sedan day.

[Greedo]

I agree, but once the temps cool down and the state stops burning to the ground.

We need to do a cruise/shoot. I drove 285 to Breck and took Loveland Pass to 70 back and it's a great, smooth drive and super easy access for almost all of us.

That's the great thing about Denver, though...When the temps are at 100 down here, we can drive up the hill to where it's 80-85.

Greedo, you sell that hatch spoiler yet?

That's why I went up to Guanella pass yesterday. The Georgetown side is great, but get south of the pass and that road is horrible! We were in my roommates Jeep, so it was all good. We stayed up that way until around 9 and then headed back to Denver.

Spoiler is still sitting here.

[Gdlaszako]

^ what about your wheels? and the drive between the RR exit off 285 and conifer is really smooth and pretty for rolling shots, and I saw a R8 with a trailer on it going the other direction.

[Greedo]

What about my wheels?

The drive from Pine to Woodland Park is another really good spot, but it's on fire so I think I'll stay away from there for now.

[UltraSchnell34]

What isn't on fire...

your sig didn't show up so I thought you sold your wheels

[Greedo]

Sneaky sneaky, sir.

[Gdlaszako]

Cheating?

[Greedo]

Something like that.

When is the next GTG? I was waiting for cooler weather or less fire, but I don't think that's going to happen.

[Gdlaszako]

less fire for sure

[Greedo]

Wow. I just realized how bad some of these fires are getting. I hope Dante (and the others) down in the Springs are ok!

[Gdlaszako]

2 of my dads co-workers lots there houses

[McGovs2.7TB5]

Crazy that this event was already a year ago. Let's do another

I agree,, Im new to the club and would love to get out and meet some of the locals..

[Greedo]

Ideas for when and where?

[jjvwg]

Where was that parking structure that you took pictures at downtown last summer/fall? Late afternoon/ early evening shoot there followed by food?

[seal66]

I am gonna crash this with my sedan...

[Gdlaszako]

wait where is that?

[jjvwg]

Lets get this going, we need a 2013 avants only photo day!

[NewDays]

Didn't know about this event last year (I don't check regional threads often) even tho I picked up my Avant a few months prior and could have made it probably. If this happens again you can count me in and a few people I know with Avants that may want to tag along. Let's set this up!

[Greedo]

That's the Auraria campus parking structure.

[NewDays]

That's the Auraria campus parking structure.

I go to metro so that'd work for me

[mikehawk666]

Just picked up an AR so I can join now!

[S4Memphis]

I vote we do this in the afternoon on saturday.. Like meet up around noon or 1, drive some where, do the shoot later in the day. just a thought..

This on either Saturday or Sunday for me, doesn't matter. Maybe get some food as well after a nice drive if anybody wants to. If the photos are at the Auraria campus we should do it Sunday so there aren't a bunch of classes going on and people everywhere.

[S4Memphis]

So um.... what's happening with this?

[boostedAvant]

I'm down with this...

[NewDays]

I'm down with this...

I was going to give you a call to join in on this once the date was set but you beat me to it! Plus we need your photo skills anyways haha

[S4Memphis]

well I guess first thing is.... gotta pick a date of when we wanna do this and at what time... Then we gotta pick where we wanna do it at. Figure out if theres more Denver peeps or Colosprings Peeps, and get a good Idea of spots in each city.
