Thank you sir. I'm also waiting on tires for my new wheels. I'll post those up next.

how are those subs? I was looking at these exact ones, but I suck with audio work so I wasn't sure.

what kind of amp set up are you running with those?

 

[acamacho104]

The subs are nice. They get pretty damn loud but at high volume the sound isn't very crisp. I'm still playing with the filter and stuff on the amp trying to clean it up. I don't really bump the bass too loud anyway. I bought them to round out the low end, which they do nicely once you play with the eq a little, and because they look good. I'm using an older alpine amp, I think it's only like 500 watt rms which is plenty for those subs. So if you're looking for something that looks good and rounds out the sound nicely without being too loud these are good. Otherwise I'd recommend something else. I had a nicer system (two 12" 1600 watt peak kicker comp VRs) in my old car. They were much louder and super clean sounding, but I didn't need that for this car. Plus this is such a small car that they produce plenty of bass. Especially because it's a hatch.

Okay thanks for the heads up. I am just looking for a little more bump than the speakers currently have. I think the bass in our cars is already pretty nice but I just want some extra bumping is all. i'll have to look back into these.

 

[acamacho104]

Yeah man.

Ahaha yepp why I refrain from posts like that
What wheels did you get? I'm also trying to change
mine now. I'm so confused when it comes to wheels,
tires, and whatever else has to do with them lol.

 

[acamacho104]

I went with the asa gt06 wheels. Got them used but they're on sale on tire rack. Tirerack.com is pretty helpful in general

bump. Builds going nicely. Do you have any pics with the wheels yet? I've seen another sonic with those type of wheels and maybe interested in getting them myself, but want to see how it looks on a few more.

 

[acamacho104]

Yeah, I've just been lazy recently. I'll get them up before too long.

I have the same, not painted. If you lower the car now, it's mean!
