pics please if i wanna go lower in front im gonna need slightly narrower tires. anyone interested in a pair of 225s? 95% tread left!

I will snap pics for you when I get home (at work right now).

Everyone's asking me how the **** my tires are stretched... LOL

Tires are Falken Ziex 912s (I THINK).

tire specs 215-40-18, wheels are 18x7.5, +45 offset

go with bridgestone potenza pole positions, absolutely love mine and have read nothin but good things about them

+1. Consider Bridgestone Potenza RE 960s PP's. Haven't owned a set myself but I've read nothing but good things as well. My friend was going to get a set but ended up going with Kumho's cuz they were cheaper. He's liking em.

I have Toyo Proxes 4's (215/50/17) on right now and I am having a good experience with them. I guess if you're considering these, read up on em.

Those are both A/S's. If you want summer tires, look no further than Toyo T1R's.

They may be incarnated in one form or another in the future......researching the right wheel/fitment/look.

Yeah I liked


They were different. Looked good with the silver and the matching tow hooks actually.

i have 225/40/18 rite now on an 18x7.5 wheels with a +42 offset, and the fronts rub when i make u-turns and the rears rub over speed bumps, but when i buy next full set of tires, i am planning on going with 215/40/18

i have 18x7.5 with 215s up front and 225s in the rear... both look almost the same... 215s wont look stretched at all... im thinking 195 or smaller would start giving the stretched look on 7.5

Can someone explain the idea of stretching a tire. I mean I understand the idea behind those pictures on the website, but I really dont understand the concept behind doing it.

 

[champaned_out]

if you were to slap on some wide width wheels like say 9" on a 6th gen accord while your slammed, you would need to roll your fenders out and stretch your tires so you dont rub your tires on the fender

people that stretch their tires out when they dont need to is just following a trend
