Man...if you are going to run that type of equipment...you really gotta prep the car for it! While using "dynomat" or other products like it isn't a "must"...it can help when it comes to rattles like this.

Shoot...you're using subs bigger than most peoples wheels!!!

lol, well first i did the 12w3's sealed, sounded nice but not loud enough.

then i did a ported resonant engineering XXX 15 tuned to 25hz and it sounded real nice but still not quite messing with me.

then i did the 18w3's and they sounded good, spl is getting there, close to doing 150's on an audiocontrol but the car sounded ridiculas outside.

so i sold my amps cuz i needed cash and decided to fix the rattles before i bought my new amps.

next i think i'll run some memphis mojo's on those 18's
