The decks are hollow and don't go thru to the battery compartment at all, so i'll be drilling another small hole to run wires but haven't figured out how i'm going to install the lights without cutting out a chunk of metal behind the battery (wanting to avoid this).
Anyway the 10" tires do not rub at all on the rear but they do if you leave the mud guard on the front.. which I was planning on removing anyway. I love the way the new tires feel tho, it's a very different ride and you can feel the height difference. I am going to have to make a new kickstand tho because with it being taller the stock kickstand is pretty useless. I got most of the parts form ali-expresss including the stainless steel battery cover on the bottom. Nobody can see it when I'm riding but just adds stability and protects the battery compartment even more.
I wish they'd develop some micro-tech for the BMS and Controller like they have on cell phones..but i'm sure some of it is because you need room enough to run thick enough wires not to melt thru.. if they could reduce the size of the controller or make it a cylinder and put it in the neck, then you'd have enough room for more batteries in the bottom. ah well, just ideas.
Good eye! but it may be slightly different than you think. I'm putting in lights inside the deck but not to where they're visible.. just so there's a glow from inside the board..

I see the holes on the frame.
