Got around to the battery today.
It was at 4v with 0.5amp draw on it. Unplugged the dash cam and it stayed the same. Unplugged every fuse under the hood, knocked .2amps when I unplugged the "TV" fuse. But nothing else helped. Charged the battery via jumpers for about 1hr, started the car, then put it on a charger next to the house for the rest of the day. Charger clicked off at 13v, abt 2hrs later it was at 12.8v.
CRAZY. Battery is from 09/21, so hopefully I can get a couple of years out of it if I can't convince CarMax to plop a battery in it. I'll give them the TSB on the network module and see where it goes. Idk though, the network module would cause 0.5amp draw? Seems a bit much.

Took my GS to a wheel repair shop today to have all 4 wheels refinished, got quoted $650.. I think I’ll just buy new wheels lol
I really like 13-15 F Sport wheels! I hear they’re heavy though. Here’s my chance to go lighter and get correct offsets and get rid of spacers.

Yeah, I forgot how heavy they were until I had to take them off to redo my caliper stickers the other day.

Do these come in staggered fitment?
Never mind, it looks like they're staggered. Damn I'm tempted and I really like them. Can we put the RWD FSport stock tire sizes on them?
