Know of any that has a good parking space that'll fit 30-40 Benzs?

Now that's a good question, lol. Well, the good thing is that Old Town has a bunch of parking structures, like on almost every block so I don't think there will be too much of a problem.

Well once we get everyone together at the general location at the meet, I'm sure we can relocate to a place wit a lil shade. I'm still tryin to find out if any of my friend's have a canopy kinda thing. If they do I'll bring it and set it up. If not we can always find shade. And trust me, it won't be hard finding 25-30 benz

You'd rather shelter the people than our own cars?

I am told that I'll need a modified spacer to achieve the desired offset. Will I have any clearance problems with 19x9.5 rears and 19x8.5 fronts?

Those sizes should be ok. Again just make sure they provide you with the proper spacer.
