Anyone know if a 255/40/17 on a 17x9 +25 will fit on a late model with rolled fenders. looking specifically at the federal ss595 for max sticky.

I need the biggest possible tire without going to flares etc.

I have no personal experience but theres a few places that might help answer your questions...

lol

Z4 hubs on stock e30 TAs. +2.5mm per side

There's still room inboard for more tire lol.

The style 32's are 17x9 et26

How exactly will you be doing the E36 M3 calipers on the rear? From what I can tell you're using Z4 hubs (and I'm assuming wheel bearings) on the stock E30 trailing arm and using a caliper adapter to get the caliper on.

That's exactly it. Z4 actually uses the same wheel bearing oddly enough

Do you use the M3 rotor? Also, does this setup retain the stock e-brake?

Yes and no. You need to do something custom to use the stock ebrake - one guy took the stock e30 dust shields and cut / welded e36 m3 dust shield outer portions on them to get the ebrake shoes on

Yeah I know however is it 530+ pages and when you search a tire size "255/40" etc is give you an entire thread not individual posts. I also posted in there several times, thought id post in the so cal section since we have so many memebers.

Ya, it is kind of a blithering mess.

Can anyone recommend a cheap leather dye to fill in cracks in seats? Want to bring my seats back to new life again. I've got good conditioner and cleaner but would really like to make the cracks disappear.

^Dye wont fill cracks

I think he wants to "hide" the cracks by blending them in to be the same color as the leather.

Well I would fill the cracks with crack filler. But I just wanted to know if anyone had any good recommendations on dye. I think I've made my decision though and will be going with a whole kit from Leatherique. It'll make my life easier buying everything from them than trying to piece the kit together.

I've tried the leather repair kits before eh. Wasn't too successful with it, but I was probably doing it wrong. It's fills the cracks but it's hard to hide the repair after you dye it. Leaves like a scar where the repair was.

Spotted a z8 leaving Angeles crest this morning.

From the few reviews I've seen, you can't even tell they've been repaired. It's all about the prep time and patience. I'd be doing the whole seat too, not just spot repairs.

After the Leatherique Kit:

Looks nice

I love it haha.

I love it haha.

I wasn't expecting that at all, I just started laughing my ass off at work. Haha.

Finding 16in tires suck. Is 205/40 on a 16x9 too stance nation? Been looking at pics online but can't decide.
