A Day With Justin (UK SUV)
Spent my day with Justin before he took off back to Arizona today hmm...it was an interesting day 
Grabbed some lunch at In N Out


A few days ago Justin was at my house we noticed his tires were pretty much done for, I offered to give him a set of 215/35/18 I had a extra set laying around which he could have (I guess I just sponsored UK SUV for some tires
) we went to go pick the set up and when we got to a local tuner shop to mount the tires his front passenger tire blew in the parking lot 







Car could not clear any of the lifts they had so they went ahead and used to alignment rack to jack up the car, but it had problems clearing it as well, so off came the bumper...reverse was also acting up so it had to be pushed back







Car swap! The shop let me use a lift to jack my car up to check something...err a little incident Justin and I had, fortunately everything was as good as new! Mine didn't clear the lifts either!
Same routine as Justin but I barely cleared it without needing to take my bumper off!



We later split, Justin's on his way back to Arizona, it was great having you here in Los Angeles if you need anything let me know I'll try to help you out! Drive safe, and I hope you don't eat up those Falkens I gave you, ohh well you have 2 more new tires I gave you, see you and Kal next month perhaps!
Motor On!

Yeah, his camber is setup that way on purpose so he's able to slam his car all the way
Am I the only one to notice the workorder bag hanging off Justin's MINI? 
He has such a beautiful car - I'm not so sure I'd like having something like that hanging off the car where it could scuff the paint.
Lovely photos, and a very sanitary looking shop. You could eat off that floor!

It's how the shop puts the work orders but it's cool since they knew we knew what we were doing in the shop so they let us chill in there

Yeah it gets dirty but looks cool, I'm thinking about doing this to my MINI too so I don't rub, but I'm not sure if I want to or not
When I had my air bagged Dodge Dakota I had to take the inner fenders out. It didn't get as dirty as I thought it would.
I would think that if he wants to be that slammed the better rout would be ait bags. Save the tires. Drive it lifted a bit and then dump it when it's wanted.
