Concept One Wheels Shows off their new CSL-5.5 Wheels

Jul 3, 2012


Concept One Wheels relased shots of their new CSL-5.5 Wheels and how they look on a BMW. Check it out...




Their new wheel is the CSL-5.5 Wheel with a Matte Black Center with Gloss Black Step Lip. Available in 19x9 and 19x10.5 with the bold patterns of 5x120, 5x112, and 5x114.3. I really like the dual finish on the wheel.




Love the wheels, hate the BMW Station Wagon. I never understood the concept of station wagons, the only one I could stand was the Dodge Magnum.

10 steps to tuning your car audio bass by Monster Customs



Monster Customs released an article about how to tune your bass in your car. Of course, with the advancements of technology, you would think folks don't need this. However, you don't want to be the person who blasts music that you can't hear words to because you forgot or didn't know how to tune your bass. So I am posting this helpful article to save you the embarrassment... you're welcome.

"Before you get started, Get out a few of your favorite CD's. Something with good mix and some low thump content. Dial back on the sub amp gain so there is very little sub in the mix. Turn off any bass boost features in the amp for now. May need a little later, but for now, no bass boost for now.

1. Set the EQ functions on HU to "0" or "flat" (no cuts, no boost)
2. Pop in the CD/tape/MP3 and select your favorite cut(s) and repeat.
3. Turn up the HU volume knob until you hear some distortions from the interior stage speakers.
4. Back off on the volume until distortions are gone. Is best to get out of the car and listen with doors open from a few feet away. If you still hear a rough sound, back off on the volume a bit more.
5. Now, time to add the sub into the mix. If amp has a low Pass filter, set it in a range between 70-120 Hz. No bass boost just yet. If you have continously variable LPF, determine what sounds best in your ears, within the range noted.
6. Bring up the gain on the sub amp, until you get it thumping and hear a "little" distortion.
7. Back off on the sub gain (a wee bit) until it sound full, deep and clean.
8. If bass seems a bit lacking of punch or deep lows, a small amount of Bass Boost, can be added. (+3 to +6dB is all you should ever need here)
9. Again, if you hear the sub getting rough from distortion, back off on the gain a bit more.
10. Now, you may use the Bass Tone control on the HU to adjust your bass from the driver's seat. This works well in simple HU's. But if you have a menu driven EQ system, this is a bit more cumbersome.

That's about it and now time for a test drive to ensure you have the system well balanced and in control. However, if you still have poor bass performance or weak bass output. May try reverse the wires to the sub and see if that improves the overall affect. If it gets better, you're good to go. If it seems worse, return the sub wires to original orientation.

Finally, if you have done all these steps correctly, and the bass is still not getting much bump or louder, and your gains are maxed out, you may have to go back to the LOC's and adjust them, in conjunction with the sub amp gains."


But if you listen to mixtapes from record labels like Get Money Records, Smoke Weed Entertainment, Twerk It Music Group, etc, then this article doesn't pertain to you.

ADV1 Wheels Shows off a Gorgeous blue Aston Martin



ADV.1 Wheels relased photos of a gorgeous, gorgeous blue Aston Martin. According to ADV.1, they "strapped a set of 21×9, 21×11 ADV5.0 Track Spec Superlights to it. The blue was just begging for a light contrasted wheel so the finish is a brushed aluminum face with polished trip and polished lips."










The color is gorgeous...

Revisiting Kim Kardashian's Luxury Custom Car Game

I think this photo is cute...

Yes they make an interesting duo and yes, in some ways they do compliment each other. However, we're not here to talk about that, we're talking about the cars... No hate here. In fact, I love it. In a way, she made him a bit more happier in the public eye...

Kim's personal car customizer and the one she extremely trusts with her high end vehicles, Platinum Motorsport, added their personal touches to two vehicles for them... within a month. The first vehicle was Kim's birthday gift to Kanye- a Lamborghini Aventador that was given to him. She didn't get him a Gallardo... thankfully since the Gallardo is the most produced Lambo to date. Some thought was given to the gift because the Aventador is a new model (code for not that many people have it). Then Kim bought for herself a new Rolls Royce Ghost in black, and got rid of the white one.

So what did Kim do?

She went to Platinum Motorsport, ordered some black matte paint or wrap for both vehicles. And the end result, which is the only thing we care about...

And if you want to see Kanye's upclose....
