    as i have now changed my rims to 15's the 13" spare is just in the way.

    so iam thinking that i may try and put a pair on subs into there.

    i only want two 10". but i what them at diffirent angals with some of them facing in and one facing out. how hard is this to do.

    has any one got any pictures of tyre well installs?

    and what about the air space?

    cheers

    Your gonna want a wood/fiberglass install by sounds of it which part of the country you located? my mate does work like that.

    second thoughts If I were you id go with one 15" decent quality sub and build it into a false boot floor and use the wheel well for it to sit if you get me [:s] That would be easiest and you could do it yourself quite cheaply.

    I have done this in a 325i convertable before. Had to build a fibreglass enclosure into the spare wheel well. Calculate the required enclosure size for the type of box you want, then calculate the volume of your spare wheel well and see if its possible. The enclosure I built was 1.5 cubic foot for two JL Audio 12W3's running 1000wrms. You need to check wether the spare wheel well is suitable.

    Thought you were going for 18" rims on your lupo? Also, there is an ice section for this.
