[QUOTE="fbi90909, post: 4335896, member: 568679"] WELL! so yesterday i finished adding all the deadener except for the V3. i left the trunk w/o V3 because i didn't want to make a mess of it in there. so i just passed it down to a friend of what i have left of it. it's not much either only like a quart was left. which really wouldn't be much for the trunk. the deadener was placed in areas i around the spare tire well, the braces of the trunk and the wheel wells to reduce road noise. much of the area was double layered. the wheel wheels were triple layered. after everything was placed in and the car was driving there was a significance in drop of road noise. i was quite impressed. here's some pics. the last of all the deadener. about 15-20sqft.

[IMG]http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n104/fbi90909/bd747081.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n104/fbi90909/3774fa5c.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n104/fbi90909/09b44762.jpg[/IMG] on side note on of the power converters for my CCFL halos burned out. luckily i was at a drive through and saw it in a reflection off the car in front of me when it all happened. so i turned them off which saved me from driving around with one halo. lawl the switch took less that 15 minutes to replace luckily i had 2 more sitting around the house. as for what cause it to burn up like that, i have no clue. i read about this happening to others before. could just be a bad converter. who knows. [IMG]http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n104/fbi90909/75bd8315.jpg[/IMG] i finally was given a saw this afternoon so tomorrow i will start cutting. i won't have the car with me as early in the morning I'm taking the car in to Sears to have the alignment and wheels rebalanced. i found my steering begins to vibrate after 50mph. the rims have proper hub centric rings so i can't say exactly why it's doing what it's doing. also, i checked the tire pressure today and i noticed that the PSI was at 45cold. i was like HOLY chit!. this is how they came to me from wheelsnext. so it has me thinking. the rating on the tires are 50max psi. the rating labeled on the car is 30psi. being that they are after market rims with low pros should the PSI be that high? or should i reduce the air pressure to 30psi for the cars rating? since these are my first set of rims I'm like the noob that doesn't know any better so if someone could be help full and recommend where i should set the PSI int he tires would be great. lawl. and yes i have searched for information regarding the air pressure for after market rims but i haven't found anything that directly answers my question. anyways I'm going to take a shower.
