Finally got my turn signal deletes and LED tails
 
I've had them for a few weeks, but just now got around to posting pics on here. If you look closely, you can see light emitting from the delete. I think I will spray the bulb with high temp black paint or just throw a resistor in place next time I'm home. Also, the car is up pretty high due to some rubbing of the 285s out back. Apparently the offset of the wheels is pretty aggressive. I need 275s instead.

Your wheels are pretty awesome.

When I recoded my central gateway to "rest of the world" so that I could shut off my tpms...my side markers stopped working. I'm guessing it's because in Europe they don't have sidemarkers to begin with. Maybe you can try that if you have an SDS.

Looks good.

So 285's rubbing...20" rims? what is the offset? Just taking notes as i'm about to buy another set of tires.

Thanks, everyone! As soon as I get it in, and back from the shop, I'm going to attempt to take some decent pics before the winter setup goes on. Not going to drive it around with bad lower ball joints, thin front rotors, and fuel leaking on to my exhaust. Just somehow doesn't seem safe.:nix:

lol

Thanks! I have been thinking about buying Shardul's setup. Was going to buy two, but my independent mechanic purchased another shop next door, so he doesn't have the funds right now. I could try offering him the STAR diagnostic as a payment for labor. :D

Not sure what the offset of these are, but they're 19s. My 285/25/20s fit perfect, slammed on my DPE S10s. They're a bit out of commission right now, but as soon as I can take the tires off, they're being refinished and more than likely sold.

It comes down to the offsets. I had 295/25/20s and slammed, with no rubs at all! 20x10 ET42

Looks great! :y

I will take a picture of them when I get back home in a few weeks and either PM you, post in here, or start another thread. Depends on if my brake calipers are done by then.
