  1. i think mine are similar to glasspacks as far as loudness goes. if you dont do alot of extended driving you might be ok with it. i think ill be happier with mine once i get rid of the dumps. dont know what it is but that pic you posted makes me wish i would have left my wheels chrome
  2. dont get me wrong, its definitely bearable now, but im pulling the cats when i put headers on and i think it would be too loud if it were dumped. if you still have cats or decently quiet mufflers you should be ok with turndowns. mine only really gets on my nerves if im on the highway for more than an hour or so
  3. mine is dumped right now and ill be switching to two stock tips in front of the tire if that says anything. i love the way it sounds but the drone on the highway on long trips is killer
  4. the relationship between the two sizes will be the same with any rim size. you can enter both in as 22s and it will at least tell you if they're the same height.
  5. no, if you change the width, you would have to change the aspect ratio too. http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html you can plug the two sizes your looking at into this calculator and see how close they are
  6. 35% on the sides is the limit here i think. i've got 35% on the windshield and 5 over everything else and haven't had any problems yet.
  7. ive got a ws6 if that counts. its like a cousin to the SS
  8. i did mine flat black. its enough of a contrast to tell theyre there but still blacked out
  9. if i had seen this in time i would have tried to make it out.
  10. actually the mileage would be alot better in a vette. its alot lighter, a 6 speed, and not awd, that makes a big difference. i know when my ws6 was stock i could easily get over 20 around town if i wasnt beating on it. hell, its a 408 car now and still gets better mileage than the truck. i just wouldnt want to give up the truck for something i wouldnt want to drive in rain or snow.
  11. at least you didnt hack it up, but it reminds me of this
  12. ive got 5 over the factory 20 on the backs, 5 on the sides and 35 on the windshield. ill try to get some pics this weekend.
  13. full time student, just started back this semester. going for either engineering or a math major. havent decided for sure but ill probably try to do both eventually.
  14. yea anytime man. its always nice to meet other enthusiasts. as long as you dont mind 1000 questions about your build and these trucks
  15. ha that is weird. looks like hes on the ks side though, and his cars half purple still a hell of a coincidence, small world indeed
  16. i was registered there under the same name, but i have been on in a few years. The whole site went to shit, just way too much drama
  17. ive got one for ya if i can find out for sure that the laws changed here.
  18. sounds good, im looking forward to some meets with the truck. especially since it will probably be a while before the car moves again. No i dont have any pics of it yet. if it ever warms up enough to clean it up ill be sure to post some up.
  19. ive had my truck for almost 2 years now and have been lurking around the site ever since i bought it. i bought it to be a nice dd that i could drive all year in any weather and occasionally to tow my TA around. its been a great site so far, ive learned alot about how i would like to mod mine.
