No they won't, halos don't get that hot. I would be more concerned with the heat from the fogs melting the glue or something, thpugh thats unlikely.

I THINK the size halo you want is around 70mm but i'm not positive on that. and yeah... heating should not be an issue. make sure they are weatherproof though or it might be your whole car you'll need to worry about getting 'hot'

This is what I wasn't to do to my Balt except I haven't considered the grill leds though good idea I was just going to paint the inside of the grill, but definitely going to get some rings for the fogs.
