Nah, I just did the Navi / XM options.

I used to be an audio nut, but now I just like it simple with good sound quality. I got the idea of the sub placement from a guy at a car audio competition a long time ago, he won the Sound Quality division with a similar setup.

It is by far the best SQ setup I've had. Nice small sealed box with absolutely no rattles. I also have JL 6.5" components up front and some 6.5" midbass woofers in the rear.

Love the sub! The tires don't need to be stretched though. That offset doesn't require a stretch judging by the way they sink in....

Yea, the rear wheels don't have the best fitment, but I don't know that they are stretched, its a 275 on a 9.5" rim. I would put some spacers on them, but I actually just got a new set of lightweight JDM OEM 18" wheels I got off a member here which I will be putting on later this year because these lowenharts are just too damn heavy. When I get those on I'm going to make sure I get proper spacers for fitment.

Its an older model Kenwood DDX7019, I got it for like $700 2 years ago. The HU itself has a rather bland, outdated interface, but the navi portion of it is pretty nice.
