Lawsuit: Muffler kit didn't have exhaust warning
By ED WHITE

If someone dies from inhaling exhaust in a garage, is it the fault of the companies that make or market a muffler-repair kit?
The family of a deceased Livingston County man thinks so. The Michigan appeals court has reinstated a lawsuit that claims the repair kit should have carried a warning about the dangers of carbon monoxide.
Craig White died in 2005 while working on his Buick. His family says companies associated with the product had a duty to warn that cars should not be run in a closed space.
A Livingston County judge ruled against the family in 2008, but the appeals court, in a 2-1 decision, sent the lawsuit back for more work this week.
The majority says there wasn't enough evidence in the record to dismiss the case. The dissenting judge says White was knowledgeable about engines.

hmmm... i think the family is just trying to get money out of it...
if he has enough knowledge to work on a car, he should know that it produces carbon monoxide...
now if he didnt know enough then he shouldnt have been working on the car in the first place

Rock the Bells 2010 Lineup is AMAZING:
This summer's "Rock the Bells" tour will feature some of hip-hop's most legendary MCs and crews performing iconic albums in full. Among the acts on the lineup announced on Tuesday (May 25) on the tour's siteWu-Tang Clan, who will serve up their groundbreaking 1993 debut, Enter the 36 Chambers; Rakim performing 1987's landmark Paid in Full; KRS-One doing 1987's Criminal Minded and Slick Rick, who will run through his iconic 1988 debut, The Great Adventures of Slick Rick. are the
The tour announcement also mentions "special guest" Lauryn Hill, but does not elaborate on what role the former Fugees and solo star will play on the tour.
With more names to be added later, the current lineup also features Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello's side project with the Coup's Boots Riley, Street Sweeper Social Club, as well as Murs & 9th Wonder, Wiz Khalifa, the Clipse, Immortal Technique, Brother Ali, Jedi Mind Tricks, Supernatural, DJ Muggs with Ill Bill, Big Sean, Yelawolf and DJ Rocky Rock.
The tour will hit four cities, kicking off on August 21 at the NOS Events Center in San Bernardino, California, then hitting Shoreline Amphitheater outside San Francisco on August 22, Governors Island in New York on August 28 and Merriweather Post Pavilion near Washington D.C. on August 29.
"This time of year is always filled with anxiety, excitement, and even relief," said Bells founder Chang Weisberg. "Rock the Bells fans have the craziest expectations, and the days and nights leading up to our initial announcement are surreal. Ultimately, our goal is to always present something that is historic. This year's show is the epitome of that tradition. Some things new and fresh, some things classic and legendary, and something that you've never seen or may never see and hear again. That's the formula. I am excited for this year's festivals and hope everyone is as hyped up as I am."
A portion of the proceeds from the four shows will go to Haiti relief efforts through the Hip-Hop and Hope for Haiti organization. The shows will also feature freestyle sessions and breakdancing performances.

GD 15 or 16 GE 16 or 17
i had 15's and still had to roll my fenders. the fit is on stock springs now and it still rubs with a full load of people lol
rim size, width, offset, tire size, and drop height will dictate what kind of fender work you'll need to avoid rubbing. when i was low enough i still rubbed on the oem fit sport wheels.
