GnatGoSplat Posted September 9, 2002 Report Posted September 9, 2002 Today only http://www.buy.com/retail/electronics/product.asp?sku=70009391 Came to $35.57 shipped for me. Quote
1trucavalier Posted September 9, 2002 Report Posted September 9, 2002 TY! oh yeah I don't speed! lmfao I will order one next friday. Quote
1trucavalier Posted September 9, 2002 Report Posted September 9, 2002 since you know more about w-bodies than me. where the heck can i get some rims to fit this ridiculous 25mm offset? got any websites noone seems to have any. I want some 17's with 235-45-17's or 16's (booo if I have to). Quote
MaD Posted September 9, 2002 Report Posted September 9, 2002 Being the impulsive buyer that I am, I picked one up. Is this a good brand??? hehe, perhaps I should've asked before buying but it ended today, and $35 ain't a bad deal, and I always wanted one of thse :-D Oh well, as long as it works, I'm happy :oops: -MaD- Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted September 9, 2002 Author Report Posted September 9, 2002 I figured, for $35, who cares? Better not wait till Friday, this price is for TODAY ONLY. As for +25mm offset... I've found Mustang wheels are the only ones that are close. Never tried any personally, but many people use that bolt pattern (5x114.3mm) on W-bodies and it fits fine. Quote
JPaganel Posted September 9, 2002 Report Posted September 9, 2002 This is the review of it. Not so hot, apparently. It's about the 7th one down http://www.radartest.com/MRDT.html Quote

GnatGoSplat Posted September 10, 2002 Author Report Posted September 10, 2002 This is the review of it. Not so hot, apparently. It's about the 7th one down http://www.radartest.com/MRDT.html Yeah, I saw someone mention that on another forum. However, someone else countered saying that site is very biased because they get a lot of their funding from one of the radar detector companies (I have no idea which one). Quote
JPaganel Posted September 10, 2002 Report Posted September 10, 2002 Could be. The top rated ones on their site are Beltronics. Hmmmm Do you know anybody who actually tests and writes reviews of these things? 9 out of 10 sites have the same marketing bs for a review.. Quote
90TGP Posted September 10, 2002 Report Posted September 10, 2002 http://www.tires.com They have a bunch of wheels with out bolt-pattern. Some you might need spacers with, some you might not, depends on the design of the wheel. Quote
MaD Posted October 1, 2002 Report Posted October 1, 2002 Um, I've been trying to use mine, and like... ALL IT DOES IS FLASH "LASER" AT ME ALL !@#$:cuss:ing day Apparently everywhere I go there's a laser beam aimed directly at my radar detector. It doesn't give up, no matter where I go, it's "bleeeeeeeep" .."Laser" .."bleep bleeep" until I get to my driveway, or the parking lot at work. Am I to assume that everyone's playing laser tag with my car? Grr... Worst Product Ever. -MaD- Quote
JPaganel Posted October 1, 2002 Report Posted October 1, 2002 I have a Whistler. It does the same thing. Apparently bright enough sunlight sets it off. Judging by what I read, this is a common problem with lower-end radar detectors. Quote
