This belongs in the detailing section, so I'll move it there.

you need something that will shrink or tighten the leather... but something that wont take the color out. i know water tighen or shrink it but it also dis colors it

Your going to get wear marks and signs eventually, can't keep them gone forever. Short of rips and tears it kind of gives the seats "character" sort of like when Brass changes color outside.

Thats the bad thing about leather that most people don't realize, you need to take care of it from day one.

Once you see any sort of wear signs, cracks, or wrinkles, you won't get them out.

You need a good leather cleaner and leather conditioner. Keep it a part of your regular maintenance/care and it will last much longer.

get seat covers to protect from sun directly hitting your leather seats.

I'm not a fan of leather seats after having them.
