  1. Do keep in account though that bigger rims does lower your gear ratio (making you slower off the line) and just mess up the accurace of your speedometer.  (just a little fyi)

    There are calculators to figure this out just like port calcs... just google tire calculator and you will find one. It will ask you to enter your stock tire size and then your new tire size. I know my 255-35-20s are 1.5 % slower then my stock 15s, so when Im doing 60mph, im actully only doing a little more then 59mph.

    This is the calculator I used, seems to be decent. and I checked it against a few others and seemed to be alright. http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

  2. oohh the carbon fiber dust caps, or are those the "carbon fiber" paper dustcaps that DD sends out sometimes.

    Ive never seen a "fake" cf dust cap. Do you got pics of this? Id really like to see this one. ;D  I can tell that one is a real cf cap just from the way the light reflects on the cap.

    They are deff 10s, but it could be a 1008. it looks like the same size cf dust cap I got on my 12. But it could be any sub from the 1000 line to the 9500 line. Like someone said, you would have to see the motor.

  3. LoL its not the best by any means, I made it with a cheap digital camera and windows video maker. No time was spent on the video what so ever, it was done out of bordum so dont knock me too hard please because there is like 10 12 second videos chopped together  :^

    So saturday night when I was done bouncing at the club, my car wouldnt start. My starter took a crap. Its going to cost over a grand to get it fixed because I drive a cadillac seville with a northstar engine, anyone that knows anything about cars will know that the starter is inside the engine so that means everything from the top end of my engine down to the heads needs to be removed. I dont got time to do this and its about a 10 hour job of not longer so the chevy dealer is doing it, I think labor is somewhere around $85 a hour.

    So with that said and done, I took the valubles out of my car. Mainly the sub and amp. lol

    So with my box sitting on my floor, and a fried sub in my powered sub box for my home theater I started to play, just to see if the dd would even move at all, which it did a little, nothing much tho. I was more amazed with the port.

    So heres the video, its about 10mb and hosted at megaupload. enter the 3 digit code at the top, and wait 45 seconds to download. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=R4SAKA35

  4. ~50 cent is a joke.... Chicken little out sold the movie get rich or die trying.

    ~50 cent stold his name from a dead drug dealer and tried actin like he was him.

    ~50 cent never got shot 9 times, he got shot 3.

    ~50 cent dissed ja rule because ja rule "sings" but then 50 goes and "sings".

    ~50 cent snitched on a lot of people like erv gotti.

    ~50 cent has meetings at the federal building, and gets 3-5 fbi members to tag around with him at all times (he is scared from his snitching).

    ~50 cent is not respected in NY, even tho thats where he claims he comes from and lives.

    ~50 cent signed gangsta rappers like mobb deep and many others to diss game, after many rappers dissed him, 50 finally comes out with a song, that says everything else that all the other rappers said, he cant come up with his own diss.

    ~Only "b!tches feel his shit, and you can find him and loyd banks in the club hugging.

    ~50 cent says gunit way too many times. Its in every song no matter who the artist is.

    ~50 cent got dumped by a hot ass model because he couldnt get it up.

    I could go on and on....

    Most of what said in rap is fake, but 50 just blows..

    Anti g~unit, g~unot & bws all the way.

    I also got a few Game songs dissin 50 cent and gunit on myspace http://www.myspace.com/indosmokinb

  5. yea, ive seen a few things about their amps burning out, Ive seen some guy on ebay offering to repair them and upgrade some of the internal compononts for more power.

    I didnt know the logitechs had all that, so Id deff go with the logitechs.

    All around logitech is a good company with good cust service.

    Im a proud owner of a logi g5 laser mouse, a logi desktop mic, and a logi g15 keyboard (omg so many options for programs that can be ran on the lcd display, its unreal, plus you can make your own!). Only bad part is I first had a 1st gen g15 keyboard, and my key paint was wearing off, I emailed logi, and they said, send it back in, and well give you a new keyboard. So I send it back in, and got my new one in a lil less then 2 weeks, with my old one too... I got 2 g15s now, but my old one I yanked the leds out of  :D :^

  6. The forum doesnt use much at all.

    You just got to figure you get 100 people downloading that eyeball video which is 9mb (100x9=900mb, which is almost a gig), then if they tell their friends and their friends tell their friends that means way more downloads. Then if those people are a video wh0re like almost everyone else is, they will download every video on the dang site, which gets to be a lot of downloading. :o

    I got no probloms donating here soon, I just gotta get a checking account opened up here, and transfer some cash from the savings.  :^

  7. Well my stock wire that goes from my alt to my bat + is not going through any fuse box, I dont want to fry my 300amp alt, or my redtop, so I got a 250amp stinger breaker on it. I see that Meade himself also has his big 3 fused. Ive also read tons of times to fuse it. So theres a bunch of people doing it. Why take the risk of frying a $3000 amp, or a $400 alt, or even a $140 battery when it can be prevented? Right? right.

    If you got a spare fuse or breaker do it, Its not going to take you but and extra 5 minutes.

    Not trying to be harsh or anything, but if its worth doing, do it right the first time.

  8. The ones in the ebay link are just pro media 5.1, there is also the pro media ultra 5.1 which come with a different controler.

    The ones on their site have a different controller. I thought I also remember even seeing some older ones with even a better controller. http://www.klipsch.com/products/details/pr...-ultra-5-1.aspx

    I hear ya on the controllers tho, They got to be all fancy looking! Which I give the logitech that much. Although I do like the headphone jack on the klipsch controller. It would be hard for me to choose between the two. I like to play alot of CSS and would almost go with the klipsch just for that headphone jack. But I just use my normal home stereo which is hooked up through my pc, and I power my Sony MDR-V700 headphones through that. More power, and cleaner sound, and I can hear footsteps accross the map in a game.

    Either way, if you going to drop your wad on some nice pc speakers, you wont be let down with either or. :^

  9. I would personally go with Logitech, Klipsch or Creative Labs

    I got to agree with that, although Creative Labs is on the cheaper side a tad compaired to the other two.

    You wont be able to find anything better then Klipsch, they got it on lock down for pc audio, with so many models to choose from.

    Next Id have to go with the Logitechs, they always performed well, lasted long, and played loud.

    Here are some klipsch on ebay, they are not the nicest ones, I think they have a model or 2 higher above this line. I had some 2.1s along time ago, I got from a friend and they whre pretty good, all I got left now is the sub box and the two 6.5s in it. http://cgi.ebay.com/Klipsch-Promedia-5-1-T...1QQcmdZViewItem

  10. hey im in milwaukee which extreme audio you talkin bout? (so i know 2 keep my distance)

    The extreme in manitowac...I dont know if the shops are in anyways related to each other, im thinking not though.

    The place in mil town is called Extreme Automotive on fonddulac ave I think is what your talking about.

    Ive pretty much learned alot from a friend of a friend in town here, but was told he dont know much of anything about stereos according to extreme.. Check out some of his stats for not knowing anything http://www.splmax.com/competitors/2000/aug/aug.html He was telling me how him and Jeremy Weber are teaming up and doing a build with two 18s and around 40,000 watts.. Im trying to get in on the build  :P

  11. HA  :^

    Im not really a Rockford fan anymore, although I do miss my 2 12" Punch Power DVC's (I could almost put my fist in the voicecoil vent)... Those where my first real subs, then I got on that hcca kick. :D

    But sh!t man, id take RF over JL anyday........... Everytime I see jl I think of crap... Its overrated and over used... Every shop trys to sell you it...

    Or some Bosten Acoustic sub that looks like a frickin 6x9 that is the loudest sub around right now, and it would take out my dd9512, and I got no reason to argue with this shop because they tell me they got all these trophies from "events", but what they dont tell you is all their "events" are hosted by themselfs....... and the funny part about it is, they never heard of digital designs or spl dynamics........ How can you be a competitor and not heard of these major brands........... I can see not knowing spl because it is from finlind, but still anyone into audio should of at least heard of it....

    So if you live in wisconsin stay AWAY from Extreme Audio, the only thing extreme about them is their prices and their BS they hand you...

    Ok vent over......... :-* :-*
