stretching and poking

[Stee-Bo]

I've been looking around and cant seem to make up my mind, what would be a good stretch for rims that are 17x8 and 17x9?

I like the look of a 205 on a 17x9.

i like the look of a 205 on a 17x9.

205/... 30, 35,40,45?

You could've just asked on the Wheel Fitment thread..

And be more specific about your car. How low are you, camber specs, fender/bumper mods?

205/... 30, 35,40,45?

Lolz at 30 or 35. It'll look like rubberbands.

215/40 or 215/45.

yeah do 205 on the 17x9
or do 195 on 17x8

go with 9's though. Or 10


Edit: I have 215/40

oh i thought the wheel fitment thread was for rims only, no tires lmao

Wheel = rim + tire

Even a 40 sidewall looks small to me on 17's. I think most people do 45. Or 50.

Stretching tires has a purpose. It's not for looks, it's to get aggressive fitments to tuck into the wheel well. That being said, a 205 on a 9" rim is completely unnecessary. Run a 215/45 and it will look perfect.

Yes I am running 17x9. So that should give you an idea.
