Good morning,

Let the car show season officially begin!

Yeah, for Southern California it’s a year-round thing. But this is a special time. The first annual chunk of weekends before summer where shows are really revving up.

Cool car camaraderie is everywhere for the taking - so go get some!

All the shows and news I’ve curated for you are linked below.

Keep driving!

Car show season means you’ll be putting miles on SoCal’s roughest roads — and nothing kills the vibe faster than old tires. I finally replaced mine last month and the difference in grip, ride quality, and confidence is massive.
Right now Tire Rack has special show-season offers on the top brands our readers are actually running. Fast shipping to SoCal, expert fitment help, and every purchase helps keep iDriveSoCal strong.
Don’t wait — grab your new tires before this weekend’s shows →
