Posted April 5, 200916 yr Well, as Jon knows, about a month ago I had curb jump right out in front of my car and demolish two of my wheels on the left side... I managed to turn around and head back to my buddies house on two flats (it was about 5 minutes away). Here is the aftermath...So I recently sold the 70 Chevy I had been holding on to for $1000 to some guy in Corpus and I purchased a new set of wheels (Velocity 780's) which I like better than the old ones anyhow... after I bought them I discovered I could've just bought two new wheels for about $300 online and these new wheels cost $800 (with my old wheels as a trade) but ah well... I also ordered me three sets of CC Tubes from Oznium.com for my footwells, seats, and grille but only two survived my install (my oafish ass leaned up against two of the tubes shattering them). These things are really great! I plan to mount the switched in the overhead light assembly when I have time.Oh, and the chrome swan on the front . I plan to add another set of speakers in the front doors, and two in the rear sail panel (I keep blowing tweeters for some reason, the power is fine, I have no idea what's going on. I need the treble to keep up with the bass. Tell me what yall think. Oh and Jon I called you that morning of the car show and you didn't pick up dude!!!
April 5, 200916 yr Author Like them rims better but damn man, give that thing a bath! Oops yeah in the pic with the swan she had been about two weeks without a wash... right after the accident happened... she was just feeling depressed all day and gorging on Haagen Daz

April 8, 200916 yr Author what made you keep the lac emb. along with the swan why not just the bird?You can't just ditch the emblem man! Besides, I think it looks much better with the emblem in front than with the bird just hanging off the hoodGlad you got your wheels fixed. I would hate to have to detail that car.Haha, it's been a while.... I need to get out there with my Dove soap and take care of the leather, and throw a coat of wax or two on what's left of her good paint Edited April 8, 200916 yr by CadillacMatt

April 8, 200916 yr i donno.. im a lil strange somtimes... you should its here waiting on you... people on CL anger me.. matt.. whats up on the tweets did you get any thing figured out? what are you poweing your highs with again?
April 8, 200916 yr Gotta watch out for them jumping curbs.That's why I drive a truck with big ass tires now roll right over.
April 9, 200916 yr Author matt.. whats up on the tweets did you get any thing figured out? what are you poweing your highs with again?Well I have the Infinity 475a (75wx4), (150x2) RMSThe speakers are rated for 100wRMS so I adjusted the gains to right around that range, and set the amp on FULL pass (which is what I think blew one of my 6.5"s and two of my tweets). I installed two more tweets, and changed the cutoff to HIGH pass on the amp and one of the new tweets died in one day which leads me to believe it was faulty... the other one is still working fine. But my driver's side 6.5" is blown, it still plays but everything is garbled and distorted. I think it was getting too much bass because before they had mad excursion, now it's much more subtle and clearer sounding.
April 17, 200916 yr And that is why I would never run low pros one little rock in the road can cost you ALOT of $$$$$.. Ouch
