17x7 & 17x9.5 235/45 & 275/40

I opted to recover the dash pad myself (after getting a $1000 recover quote over the phone). I removed the dash pad, pealed of all the crusty foam, glued new foam to the edges, stitched a couple pieces of vinyl together that would resemble the shape of the dash pad, and with a lot of cursing and glue it all came together. It was
very time consuming and I will probably never do that again. Here are some pics

Thanks for the info. It looks so much better and you did an awesome job on it!

At $1000, I'd tackle it myself as well. That's a crazy amount of money for that. Maybe I'm just poor lol...
