Need a shallow sub, don’t have a lot of room. My friend suggested I look for Rockford p1s, JL Audio’s shallow mount sub, (don’t know the name) Elemental Designs, etc.

Anyone have anything for sale, these or others? or any feedback on whats listed? thanks

Have you looked into the Alpine PLT-5 or PLT-7? They are a discontinued model so you have to find them used.

I’ve always heard that pretty much all shallow subs play like the next smaller size ie- 12"s sounds like 10"s, etc. So if you’re looking for 10" sound I’d go with a 12"

just my $0.02

incidentally I have a bose shallow 12" out of a 99 Caddy STS but it’s 0.6 ohm so probably not what you’re looking for

Earthquake makes shallows and I think Blau still does

What is it going in? I first had a single 10" sub in my ski-port facing the trunk and now I have a square 10" facing into the cabin on my E36. I hate losing trunk space.

e30 with e36 m susp/brakes so I need 16" 5x120 wheels. I have an L7 solobaric 10" but I doubt it would fit in my spare tire (making a sub enclosure inside the spare tire)

I have my stock wheels, only one has decent rubber, I can’t use them since I changed my bolt pattern. I’ll give them to you for $50. Only problem is I painted 2 of them black.

I don’t think those will clear my brakes (m3). they’re 15’s, correct?

what did you change your bolt pattern to?

RSX’s have a sub in the spare tire well… might wanna look towards that avenue. maybe see what people replace those with, or even use an oem one.

I dont know how much your looking to spend or how loud and crisp you want it to sound. If your like me your gonna want the loudest cleanest sounding sub that will still fit in that spot. I would highly recomend the JL Audio 13TW5. Its a 13.5 inch sub that has a mounting depth of 3.5 in. And the overall diameter is only 14in. I have experience with these subs and they are incredible. PM me if you want more details. I do this stuff for a living.

I can’t vouch whether they will clear M3 brakes but they are 16’s. I changed my bolt pattern to 4.5" so I could fit my SSR’s and some cheapo meshies for the winter(see avatar). I have some 15" bottle caps I need to get rid of too but the tires are mine.

I won’t sell just one. If you need to use it just to test fit, no problem.
