There you are Derick! I was hoping everything was OK. Glad to hear it was just work getting in the way. Personally, I've gone for looks/performance and sacrificed some road noise and mpg's with my tire/rim combo. I'm very happy with the noise reduction results I'm getting and I can always turn up the volume and tune out ANY road noise that way! I also came to realize that I like a "little" road/tire/engine/exhaust noise, I feel more in touch with the car and the driving experience. What I DON'T like is the little interior rattles, vibrations and stuff like that from inside the car. But those are all going away soon!

I miss that a lot,

and it's been hard to get used to.

But on the other hand makes my commute so comfortable, can't wait to finish this deadening treatment and start with all the audio install. I hope I can get some work done next week. :thum bup:
