Very nice pictures, my uncle has a house down in Cape May Point about a block away from the Lighthouse. It's very nice down there, looks like you guys had a great time.

I miss your RG4s, I don't care how light these 18s are, the previous wheels looked better

Looks are subjective (though I agree that I preferred the look of the RG4s... though 19s are starting to look weird to me now).

But, objectively, these
ride better
handle better
accelerate better
brake better
and have cheaper tires
