Hey guys,
I was planning ordering a really nice set of plugs for my ears off da net, just the site (which is american) has a disclaimer that the plugs are imported from another country and hence the measurement is off, so that a 6mm plug (which is the smallest they have and is the size of my stretches) is the size of the middle of the plug, with the ends going wider.
