It's listed on the fuse box cover ... driver side kick panel. I believe it's a 10amp fuse.

I'm not sure offhand about the clearance and corners but something seems fishy if you have that many lights out ... it might just be that one fuse...

Hey offhand would you know if your OEM 17's have enough offset to clear brembo's??

Has this been going in phases or did all the lights go out at once? Time for you to find a flashlight and start pulling some fuses!

I might be interested in your wheels to use for autocross and track use depending on what size tire I could fit on them. Any idea how wide the rims are?

a couple of things you can try:

1. Reset the ECU/BCM.
2. Download the service manual if you don't already have it and go through the wiring diagrams. I just glanced at it and there were some test procedures listed.

Unfortunately, I'm not familiar enough with it either to get you to the right page. LT-32 might be a place to start. I think it cautions against disconnecting stuff with the lights on.

I also don't know the reset procedures off the top of my head but you should be able to search it. It's probably a sticky somewhere. I'd try this first. Good luck.

Yeah you could go with spacers but I would be using these for track wheels and the spacers add unneeded stress to the hubs.
