It's very distracting and almost caused me to rear end the car in front of me more than once.

Flashing lights are for emergency vehicles only and if someone claims they're legal in their state, city or county, I'll show you the law that says they're not.

Just because a dealer offers them as an option doesn't make them legal. Being illegal doesn't mean that you'll get pulled over or ticketed for it. I think it's in a gray area right now, but if enough people had them, there'd be an outright ban.

Can you imagine if even 1/3 of the cars on the road had these?
The unit i use flashes fast 3 times then stays solid, it will not flash again until you are off the brake for more than 8 seconds. I don’t think the third brake light it bright enough to annoy people during the day but maybe at night? I will have to get somebody to drive my car and I follow lol

Well here she is with the new wheels and tires , the wheels are JR Motorsport that I bought off a forum member two years ago . They are 18 x 8 + 18 x 10 and fit with no issues so they are the proper offset . The tires are Sumitomo HTRZ III's . I like how they look what do you guys think ?
