heres my 18x7.5 on some 215s.. sorry if the colors on the pictures look a little washed out... took these from my camera phone

i dont see any stretch action imo

I believe that i read tire stretching started out in the drift scene. by stretching tires and having rediculous camber it allowed drifters to have wide crazy offset wheels and still slide as there was little tread that actually mad contact with the road.

I run 205/40 on my 7.5. it's a very MILD stretch. On Falken Ziex.

contrary to popular belief, yes.

the most dangerous part is mounting stretched tires....but not the mild stretches...for crazy stretches you have to use alot of pressure to get the bead to set....sometimes using explosions
