400 Dollars for speakers? Help plz?

[Bloodhound34 10+ year member]

Hey, I have a budget of 400 dollars for some speakers for my car. I have a 1998 Camaro. I don't remember what size the speakers are, but I know 6spdcoupe has some Rainbows I might be interested in. I'm open to suggestions, if anyone knows of a classifieds thread, website, ebay auction, anything as long as I can get some pretty decent speakers for under 400. I listen to a lot of rap and metal so bass is definately important.

BTW for wiring up subs, an amp, and speakers how much would you expect to spend on wiring?

Go listen to some Hertz HSK 165's. You'll be amazed. I was...And this was after I was rolling my eyes while listening to the guy on the phone gush over them...Believe it.

BTW...I am coming off of having Boston Pros. I blew the driver. I found the tweets a little bright for my taste. But that's completely subjective. Other than that they were awesome. Very clear.
