Those with long vehicles, which entrance do you use to get into the Pacific Center parkade? I went down the Howe/Dunsmuir entrance recently and I thought I was either going to scrape the front bumper along the wall or curb my rear wheel when the ramp curves left to the ticket dispensers... lol...
Is the Robson entrance any better? Howe/Georgia?

Is the Robson entrance any better? Howe/Georgia? | How long? I've gotten in with the X5 while it's tight I didn't feel like I was going to scrape walls. My bigger concern is when I get in and out with the M3, the curbs are so tall I would curb the wheels and bumpers if I'm not careful.

Thanks, I'll keep those entrances in mind the next time I need to go there... lol I've had the car 4 years and that was the first time I went into the PC parkade. I've gotten it into and out of Crystal Mall, figured PC couldn't be worse than that... it's not on the inside but the entrances are shit... but once I got inside, I notice all these trucks in there and wondered how they got in there without curbing/hopping the rear wheel on the curb. Now I know why 4 wheel steering is a thing... lol

They need to add 4 wheel steering to Costco shopping carts. Dodging around people is too difficult.

Oh yeah the G90 is huge. Crystal mall is actually not that tight, the problem is the people who frequent it.

I thought the icbc book said to occupy into the parking portion so you can block out bikes on coming up from behind | heck, people turn right from anywhere but the right

I have to ask but which wheels are these and how/why are your lug nuts stripping? Do you even have the correct size and length?  | |

Also, aftermarket wheels often have cone/ball seat etc.
Don't but random 1.5 nuts. You gotta get the right seat.

the lug nuts came with the wheels...
The lugs been abused since 2019, and they are the unbranded China aluminum ones (soft af)
All of them are kinda stripped, but at least still torques to correct specs except for 2.....those 2 will rotate on the torque wrench... and I am kinda scared to even try now cuz I dont want them to be stuck and cant take off my wheels
They are Konig Flow Formed AMPLIFORM 19 X 8.5

How are you abusing the lug nuts? 100% pedal to the metal full torque from a red light all day every day? | |
