depends on the tire. I have some 215 35s i'm putting on a 10. but they wont seat even with a cheetah. Have to use the bike tire trick.

225/35 imo

it's not extreme till you have to use the bike tire...;D

Or gangster like pawlak one time had to stretch some R comps on a 11 wide rim for a weekend before he could put them on 12's. haha

I remember john at CTO making it a big deal cause they were like 235's or 245 r comps. But it was for a show. I do not remember which one. about 2 years ago if I could put a date on it.

Got it from onlinetires.com took about 3 days to come in. You kinda gotta call here & there to remind them because it's like a hit & miss with them sometimes. You can pick it up locally at cerritos to save you some money theyre warehouse is off of Carmentia & Alondra (around there).

Or I recommend you go in person, I spoke to a salesmen on the phone and he said next time I should just come in and if they got it in stock I can just do a will call.

Cheapest price around. I'm getting my tires monday! I went with the 225/35/18 because I didn't want to experiment and lose 200$ bucks lol.

That bike tire thing wont work for most larger stretches.

[!Zar!]

I want to learn how to use starter fluid to bead tires.

I've only ended up lighting the inside of the tire on fire. I wasn't able to get an explosion to push the tire outwards enough.

Tipsssssss?

i've had to do that with 215s for a 10 lollllll it was the tires fault though, not the stretch

[silviaguy240]

Dont use too much, it will just puddle and light on fire. Just a quick spray around it to get enough vapor so it will "explode". And you gotta do it quick enough before it settles.

[shreeveco]

And be sure to remove the valve stem core.

^ This, as with any propellant, you need the right air/fuel ratio, try spraying less

[TheRealSy90]

Throw a wideband sensor in there while you are at it :P

You didn't have to keep the core in and have air connected to the stem? Every time I have had Ray mount mine we had to have air hooked up rather than the core out. Thats with 185/60 on a 10j and 215/35 on 10j.

I've put air to it without the core and it helps, but without air, it tends to work better sans core.
