To Wall, Or Not To Wall?

Hey guys,
Alright i just got my 1988 mazda b-2200 on the road and trying to get a plan together for the winter season. so fr im planning 2 300 amp alternators, plus the stock, 5 runs of positive and 5 runs of negative 0 awg wire, dynamat the whole truck, 4 red top batteries, 2 hifonics collosus II amps(only have one, looking for a second...

Now my main issue is what i should to for my sub setup, i was thinking 4 18 Fi Btls in a wall, or maybe 10 10s in a wall... im just curious tho, how good is a wall for dail listening? i love hiting the low 30-25hz songs while cruising, but i also dont mind a good number on the mic.

i just need some opinions on the best way to do a wall, and if its even the right way to go...

pivcs wouldnt hurt either,
Thanx,
Travis

5 and 5 of 0 gauge?!
dual 300 amp alts?!
slight overkill unless your goal is over 15000 watts

I got one client rollin round pullin over 140 with 1 500 watt zapco amp and two 16's on stock charging
And another that used to have 4 JBL 18's with two 1000W ppi's burpin mid 150's (this one was a b2200) stock charging but dual deep cycles and isolator

the first one is sealed the latter was ported and had it in his canopy
