Thanks Jurgen! Yeah SoCal is a good place in the States to be buying or selling EVs. The market is a bit soft for obvious reasons (new LEAF, new EVs, etc.) so hopefully I have this thing priced right now. Glad you like the panels and rims. Normally I would go with a +1 wheel size and a very...

Hi, wow I didn't come back soon enough to check the replies. I put a wrap on it to simulate the look of the Nissan NISMO style, where Nismo is Nissan's inhouse tuning division. I removed the steel wheels and put some lighter and nicer-looking aluminum wheels on (similar to stock sizes but with...

Hello fellow LEAFers and LEAF-fanciers! I'm selling my 2018 LEAF S. Price is $18,500. Car is financed so I'd sell the car, release it to the buyer (with bill of sale and DMV release of liability) and then send the title when I get it. Car has a 151 mile range with full battery. 0-60 in about...

Yeah I got the Motegi 16x7" with the machined stripe. They're stock replacement size (slightly wider than stock) and I put the same tires on 'em. They look better than the stamped steel wheels and are noticeably lighter (also lighter by spec, 10 lbs. per wheel from what I see). Stock steel wheel...

Hi! Yes, I have that exact same tire. Glad to know it'll fit 7" wide wheels. :) Thanks!

Thanks Gerry, right now everything with this wheel is the same as stock except width. An extra half inch on each side should be fine I think. Do you think I'll be able to use the stock tire on a 7" wheel, all else being equal? I was thinking about rolling resistance too, which is why I wanted...

Ah good, so the 7" width is fine. Thanks!

Hi Fellow LEAFers! I'm eyeballing some new wheels for my car, the last mod I will make until I get a Tesla Model 3 in 1-2 years. The Model 3 is the car that made me fall in love with EVs and is the reason I bought a used LEAF as my first EV, so we're all allies here. :D Here are the rims...

So I'm guessing that baking the whole car has a serious effect on the battery? Gawl I hope they would know not to do that! :)

Hi Leftie, Yeah I hope so! I'll ask 'em how they did it. The shop is highly-rated and they seem very diligent, so I'm guessing they did it right but who knows. I will definitely ask come Monday (or tomorrow). So far they've been very candid with me, and happy to answer all of my probing...

Hello Fellow LEAFers! Well I only had my new-to-me 2018 LEAF S for a couple months at most when L.A. street parking bit me hard. Some gigantic truck (we theorize) smashed in to my car, and then smashed in to another car the very next day (same location). We think it was a construction vehicle...

Haha, YES! This is the primary reason I bought an EV. I commute to Hollywood every day, and the HOV lane is an important time-saving and frustration-reducing part of my commute. I also like EVs for other reasons, but HOV lane access is right at or near the top.

I tried this setup tonight in my 2018 LEAF S. A few notes; 1. The LEDs are available from Amazon (and other places) and are made by Auxbeam. Model number; H11 LED Headlight Bulb NF-S1 Series LED (2 pieces) 2. These do not use fans of any type. 3. The fit is direct replacement, however...

So for low-beams, you simply replaced the stock bulb with LED bulbs of some type, presumably; Auxbeam H11 NF-S1. Does the product at the link below look correct? https://www.amazon.com/Auxbeam-Headlight-Headlights-Philips-Conversion/dp/B074GX852M The high beams on the LEAF are fine but man I...

Wrap was $600. Tint was $300.

Thanks! I'm not going to sink too much money in to it but I'm really happy with it so far. I'll PlastiDip the hubcaps for sure soon. :)

Ah! I get it now. Yeah I guess I'll have to get another one for balance. Good point. Where would one get one? Do I have to write to the DMV or something? Maybe it's in the documentation somewhere.

Ah yes. Any suggestions? Aren't those stickers supposed to be there like that? They were on the car when I bought it (used). :)

Howdy LEAFers! Check it out, I had my LEAF wrapped on its roof, a-pillars and hood inset. Window tint got added too. The wheels are just a quick Photoshop since I plan to paint or PlastiDip the hubcaps in black. Feedback welcome!

Thanks, I think this might be the best way to go. Is it size S4?
