Option 1 for me.

Oh the irony, is that before or after they've repaired damage?

Depends on width and design?

I preferred sarahs 275's on her gtfs to my 285's Thought mine looked a bit too... chunky? NEVER! I like the chunkier look but it's all personal taste. I preferred mine when the tyres were closer to the arches (i.e parked on an uneven surface in a petrol station), but I found 275 was just nicely tucked whilst still offering some rim protection? 255 seems a little stretched though for the fronts (9.5"). IMHO it looked vile on the M3, with supposedly stock tyre sizes, imo they were way too stretched.

Not too bad? Would help to know the rim sizes though? £261 for 2x 452s? http://www.camskill.co.uk/products.php? ... 0s338p6236 Ahhh, the T7's! If they're 19x9 and 19x10, then yeah, 275 is probably the best bet. Ah wait, are they 18x9 and 18x10? If so I understand £280 now.

Mmm, need to know the size of the rims. But see the tyre size guide here: http://www.kouki.co.uk/utilities/visual ... calculator My opinion? Don't like it really generally, there are only a very few cases where it looks ok. A very mild stretch like 10mm, fine, but 30mm? Not for me.

See, If I'd have known, would have been worth a listen at the meet Ah well, hopefully next time Well I am shy and don't like to boast What was with the buddy club and the stockings then?

Yup, I'm screwed: "The Maximum reasonable mounting depth for the front speakers in the z is 2 7/8" with a spacer." from the wiki.

Crikey, bargain if they fit: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Hertz-Mille-MLK-1 ... 27b6b2ede7

Says 69 here http://www.hertzaudiovideo.com/Doc/Hert ... HSK165.pdf Not sure which depth figures to take HKS Total Depth = 79 MKS Total Depth = 84 Anyway the HKS fit I bought them from another member so I knew that already I'm hoping it's the mounting depth for the woofer listed there. I mean, I hope I'm wrong, I'd love to be able to fit the mlk 165's in the door, would be much cheaper than the alternatives and they do look really good What have you got the hks's hooked up to?

I think what some people have done is just pad in the area where the rear sub goes in the gt model and use the whole enclosure without fabbing a box? I don't see why you'd get the rear speakers done personally, just a 2 channel amp and the 2 front speakers and leave it without a sub until you can do that. But then again, imho decent speakers don't need a sub separate. I'm tempted by the hertz mlk165's but they're too deep for the doors I think I have hertz hsk 165's front and back Are the mlk's that much deeper? Apparently they've got a mounting depth of 80mm and I think the max you can use is 67mm? Hmm, hsk's are 69mm though.

The M3 really doesn't have a gearbox I'd want in any car tbh. It was absolutely horrid when cold and it certainly took a very firm shift, otherwise you got penalised for it every time. That, tied with the annoying clutch delay valve made it about as un driver friendly as I've had so far tbh. You just couldn't perform a smooth change no matter how hard you tried. Pull away too hard and all you'll do is smoke the clutch. Now, a ferrari 355 open gate box, or the dsg box in the gallardo, those are slicker changes than hell.

That looks

Aleeeexxx, neil is confusing me Spacers serve one purpose: Looks.

Neil, going the Euro look (stretched) will have the opposite effect and will pull the tyre away from the arch mate, creating a gap. The Euro look is basically only for show cars and is potentially a real hazzard for road driiving also there are legal implications involved regarding this, of which I am not to sure. You have now got me totally confused mate, one minute you are building a track warrior and the next you are building a show car. Do you have a second car that you are not telling us about? Lmao I'm showing my track car lol I'll do it for as long as I can until the money runs out lol. I was considering slightly stretched so when I run spacers on the rays I don't need to take them off when I put the 19's back on. It was the drift look I was wanting rather than euro lmao I thought the drift look was fat tyres? Iunno. Looks fat to me? http://www.modified-cars.info/Pictures- ... Photo.html

Do you have a second car that you are not telling us about? +1 I am a confused But, aggressive, do the lmgt4s really stick out enough to be considered aggressive? Thought the idea was you'd have lip/rim showing but no rubber? I.e. 10-12" widths with low offsets and maybe 245 tyres? That or massive spacers? http://my350z.com/forum/wheels-and-tire ... lcome.html

An M3 which you can just grab a gear and go? Wish my previous M3 was like that. The gear changes in the M3 were downright lousy, especially when cold. Stupid clutch delay valve made things 10x worse. One other question, do you downblip? The clutch delay valve in the M3 would help make it seem smoother when downshifting, merely because the clutch isn't engaging. Makes it rock like a bucking horse when you're driving slow round town though.

Ah, my bad. When you say the void behind the drivers seat, what about where the current sub lives and making up an enclosure?

I think you'll find it very difficult keeping the oem bose amp as it has 2 ohm speakers. I'm not sure what speakers have that impedance? Best upgrade excluding changing the amp out/speakers/custom sub build, is just changing the head unit as mentioned.
