Flow One Race Spec, some budget flow formed option on Tire Rack. 18x8.5 ET40. I bought them for winter tire use but have PS4S on them now for DDing. They aren't as light as Apex though, I think Apex in this size is closer to 19lb and these are 22lb...

need to drive this thing more; need to wash too ...anyways, took it out for coffee Saturday, and snapped a shot! Brown hash in the sky due to San Francisco North Bay Butte Fire. We have to all pray for the people of Paradise, CA

I know this is VERY late compared to all you early adopters from 2017 and 2018, but I just got word my Aegean Blue 2019 CTR arrived at the dealership. Had it on order for a while and thankfully at MSRP. But I do need to have it transported to my state. My salesperson sent a photo after the car was unloaded. I can't wait to bring the car home. I was late to the party but better late than never. Cheers to all the enthusiasts who got me excited about this car! Looking forward to joining the fun.

Congrats! You have good taste in colors! Wink... wink...

My Aegean blue CTR finally arrived all the way from Wisconsin to Texas! Its transport companion was pretty cool too-- a beautiful classic Thunderbird. First stop, Texas inspection. Next stop tint. Already had it ceramic coated. Need to figure out other paint protection at least for front. One day at a time...

HA! What interesting timing. I just picked up the car from having that done today. Was considering XPEL and Suntek. Went with XPEL for the entire front. They also covered the mirrors, door handle cavities and rear bumper surface where the hatch closes. Wasn't cheap. But from everything I've read, it is worth every penny.

BTW- When I was considering colors before at CTR became available, I was looking for Black, Polished Metal or Aegean Blue. No knock to any other color (my Golf R is Black) but this blue is awesome in person. Really shows the lines of the car. Before I got the car, I was mildly concerned about a brighter color given the styling of the car. Now, I can't imagine wanting any other color.
