Re: Will these rims/tire fit without a rolled fender

My old car. 15x8 offset 0 with 195/50R15 all around.
As you can see, car is lowered but all my fenders were NOT rolled.
205 is too wide in my opinion. Good luck.

As a COUPE guy, I did something similar for the speaker board but, nothing close compare to yours.

Re: Ae86 hazard light don't work

Flasher Relay on AE86 is located on your driver side panel. Since you have mentioned that your turn signal is working, it may be not the issue but, try turn on your signal and locate the little box that is making a clicking noise. http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b31/Haru99/AE86%20Diagram/AE86Relay...

Re: Ae86 hazard light don't work

Most Japanese cars uses same kind of Blade Type fuses during 80's. (AE86 uses "regular" type) When you need to replace it, just make sure to replace it with SAME amp. More information about automotive fuse can be found here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuse_(automotive) Good luck ;)
