Oh yea…been driving it for a week now. Still dialing in the horizontal adjustment to suit my needs. I feel like they’re a a different color temp…like a 6k vs a 5k. It’s definitely a different bean pattern as well. Cut off is great but the center of both beams has like a triangle sticking up above the cut off. When you aim the right light just a hair to the right it illuminates the whole shoulder of the road really well.
Nice.. I remember I had some weird Hella aftermarket E code headlights that a friend brought over in the 90’s for a wrangler. There was some discussion back and forth about having the triangles either line up or apart and lining up the edges of the road.
I don’t think we ever solved it, it was a wrangler and got dirty a lot, not much road time. They were pulled out for some American style broad spread stupid bright stuff.

Right now I have the left side triangle in the center of my lane and the right side aimed at the shoulder. Seems to be what makes the most sense. I found this showing the difference between ours and theirs.

Looks like you have quite the sleeper now to the untrained eye, no ST badges front or back. I like the look!

Sight unseen, I’d do the same. Enjoy.

Trying to get better wheel pictures, but I did a 6 Hour Rd. trip from Houston to Austin and back today and it was heavy fog and drizzle the whole way so the car is absolutely filthy. View attachment 28437 View attachment 28438

Best looking ST wheels hands down. Looks almost like the Rohana RF1. Really nice

I dunno…he seems right to me.
I would hope he does, otherwise you bought the wrong wheel.

Plus there are no others unlike the Velgen/Vossen crowd on every corner.
Not many Mary K cars parked on the corners either. :LOL:

I really am glad you like your wheels.

I thought you ended up on BC Coils? Either way, same response as everyone else...so sick. Is the wheel offset giving you that stance or did you use spacers as well?

You have me confused somebody else. I’ve never planned to put coilovers on this car. And the wheel fitment is surely because of the wheel specs. I came up with this width, and offset back in 2020

No worries, it's even more impressive that it's just from the wheels. Thanks for clarifying.
