your saying 255 will be almost no stretch on a 11" wheel when a 255 rt615 runs bigger then most tires out there and i've got it on a 10.5" wheels and you can deff notice the stretch... not much, but it's noticed for sure...

so it will deff be more stretched on a 11" obviously..
i don't have any "stretch pics" but the rim is right with the fender if i lower it more

PRE- lowering...

not the best pics to see the stretch but u can see that it's there..

yea noticable not saying your wrong, but when this is the "most extreme tire stretch thread"! lol
i was answering accordingly
had a 255 on my 10.5 ssr's and the sidewalls looked straightup and down, , like i said it all depends on the tires..
235 35 on my current 10.5 and the stretch is still mild right now!

ill get a pic of my 235,s on the 10.5 and post, its a mild stretch in my opinion

also wanna show how, i have 2 different front tires on the fronts
they are both 225 40 18 on a 9" ssr
they are both falkens and one looks like a really nice mild stretch and the other looks like a minor to no stretch!
why, because of the model of the tire!
i need to use my friends i phone to show.. post it up a bit later.

i knoooooooow that it's because of the model of tire....
that's exactly what i'm saying/said...
Falken RT-615's run WIDER then most other tires.
and i have a 255/40/17 rt-615 on a 17x10.5 and u can notice the stretch that it has...

that's why i'm saying that a 255 other brand tire would be mild+ rather then almost no stretch.

240trainee · 09-11-2008, 03:38 PM

Not necessarily true, due in part to the structure of the 615's, much stiffer/ flatter sidewall.

a Feddy wouldn't look nearly that stretched in the application.

Z33dori · 09-11-2008, 11:18 PM

275/35 on 10.5
toyo t1r

that is barely stretched...

tramp_drift240 · 09-12-2008, 12:40 AM

i wouldnt even label that stretched, since the 275 is just barely thinner than the rim width.

derek_s13 · 09-12-2008, 02:11 AM

see, when i click the "MOST EXTREME TIRE STRETCH THREAD" i expect to see pictures that are close to the MOST EXTREME TIRE STRETCH.

soooooo why is pg. 23 "most conservative stretch ever... i wonder if we can legally call it a stretch..?" page?

post #667 needs to be relocated to the pic thread or something

thats what i am talking about...

oh and for the guy who was complaining, we all know its all about extreme stretches, but someone asked a question about fitting a tire and the discussion came up! read a few posts back and youll get it!

relaaaxxxx!

SoSideways · 09-12-2008, 08:25 AM

I'd say that, if the tire manufacturer put the recommended rim width down for the tire, and you put that tire on a rim within the recommended width, then it's not a stretch.

Take for example, a 235/40/17 tire on a 9.5" rim.

For the Federal 595, that falls under the recommended rim width for that size tire, and it shows because it is barely stretched, just like that 275/35 T1R up there on the 10.5" rim.

rednissan180 · 10-07-2008, 10:59 PM

I know its a weak size, but what would look good on a 16x8" rim?

rednissan180 · 10-08-2008, 04:56 PM

pics please

silviaguy240 · 10-08-2008, 06:38 PM

195/50 for the 16x8

man.. you guys stretch tires so much you forget the correct sizing

255 on a 10 is a stretch

255mm to inches = 10.03

at this your point your like 255 is perfect for a 10... but you are wrong

a 10'' wheel from lip to lip is nearly 11 inches

11inches = 279.4mm

275-285 is the sizing for a 10'' wheel

275 RT-615 = 10.8 on 17x10 RPF1

FIlthy 24O · 10-08-2008, 10:53 PM

yeah but he says itll have a mild stretch he didnt say a 255 was 10 inches wide.....correct?

his wheels are 10.5's though so he's at nearly at 11.5'' ( lip to lip ) using a tire that is 10.03'' wide.. let me go further into dept

11.5'' = 292.1mm, that size is not available so you have to choose tires that are close.

275mm = 10.8 inches
285mm = 11.22 inches
295mm = 11.6 inches

285-295 should be the best choice

GabeS14 · 10-09-2008, 01:00 AM

So how is that anywhere near the most extreme tire stretch?

Lol. I have the same question to him. There's always people coming into threads, trying to push their own shit.

ZilviaKid · 10-09-2008, 07:58 AM

this thread used to be so hardcore.. and now its turned into more of a "Fisher Price - My First Pussy Stretch"

come on man, i came here to see some 195/45s stretched on a 10j. thats what this shit is all about!

I honestly think that is first of all, impossible.

Unless you're talking about a 15" rim, since nobody makes anything less than a 205 in 17" sizes, and nothing less than a 215 for 18" sizes.

ok it was an exaggeration, but you understand what im getting at correct?

most of the "stretch" in here lately is bunk. the sidewalls are almost flush with the wheel..

aliveoutofhabit · 10-16-2008, 10:54 PM

225/45R18 Direzza DZ101 on an 18x9.5

Apparently a 245/40R18 barely stretches on a 9.5 (Dunlop Direzza Z1)

I don't own a 240... just a friend of a member... but I've trolled these forums for at least 4 years just for wheel and tire info.

Btw I love this thread. If anyone needs some stretching done, we are more than game to try some craziness. I really should take more pics of some of our work, but in the chaos of business its hard to take some time off so that I can run outside to take pics. But ever so often I do get this oppurtunity, Here is a pic of:
215/35R19 Federal 595 on a 19x9.5 NOTE:Small Sidewalls are a lot of fun to stretch and fill with air, but this one took extra lube to seat correctly without leaking air later.

If anyone in So Cali needs a little helping with stretching we are more than willing! Give us a call @ 323-564-5797.
We'll be waiting with our 3 Cheetahs standing by.
