In general however BMW hoses are not known to fail in fact I don't think I have ever head of it happening. There are plenty of other parts of the cooling systems that fail repeatedly, however you seem to be replacing them all. The short and yet unhelpful answer is -- I don't know. -- Jamie Howton 2006 M Roadster 2004 645Ci 1995 M3 Hampshire, IL ************************************************* Please help support the E36M3 list by visiting our sponsors: Bimmerworld http://www.bimmerworld.com Turner Motorsport http://www.turnermotorsport.com Eurosport High Performance http://www.eurosporthighperformance.com Rogue Engineering http://www.rogueengineering.com Treehouse Racing http://www.treehouseracing.com Elephant Motorsports Inc. http://www.elephantmotorsports.com DIGEST INFORMATION: http://www.bmw-m.net/resources/digest_info.htm ************************************************* -- No virus found in this incoming message.

It really depends on manufacturer. I have ATS (Two piece) 18x8.5 all the way around with 235/40s on each corner. The setup is great and I think next time I'll move to a 245 or 255 in the rear since the lips are rolled.

Graeme's Integrals are very nice and a good deal. I've always wanted a set (as they are quite rare in that size/offset/bolt pattern), but I don't need any more wheels.

Hi Bill, I run the BBS RGR wheels. Size 18x8.5 et 38 These are perfect and IMHO drop-dead gorgeous. I run 245/35/18 Hoosier's -- no rubbing, and no spacers necessary (rear fenders are rolled).

Hey guys, Got my injectors back from Cruisin Performance. He said that they were in great shape considering the miles. They were more or less perfect as is, the cleaning just made them flow a tiny bit better. I was rather surprised actually but then again, the car ran perfectly before so what did I really expect. I also had my radiator pressure tested today and as it turns out it's perfect so I had a coolant leak from the overflow tank hose, or the top bleeder (I think) line, or the expansion tank itself. All of which is getting replaced so I can only assume leak cured. Thanks, Mark
