Hankook Evos have really thick sidewalls. I learned it the hard way when they didn't fully stretch on my 18x12s

If you are worried about the ride quality of your daily the v12 is much better, if you are trying to stretch something stupid like a 215 40 on a 10 than go with the fateral.

i need a good stretch to be able to pull camber out from 4.4 with a 265 to around 1.5 without more fender more so im guessing a 235/40 on my 10.5 will do it pretty close but im worried about how fat they run


so im thinking of going with a 225/40 like icedsole said on the federals

I usually jump on the side wall all around before I put it to any stretching, just to soften it up a bit more. and thin layer of tire lube

Star Specs are boss, DunLop tires are BOSS.

I like using lube, feel like I'm getting too old to manhandle objects and need help with friction
