Aggressive Wheels and Stretched Tires....Welcome

At the end of the day...its a cosmetic mod that has nothing to do w/ performance. I personally think it looks cool but I would never run a aggressive stretch like some of these cars posted...for no other reason other than I need as much traction as possible and would gladly take a 295/30/19 setup over these any day.

dunlop direzza's, 275/30 or 35, i don't remember, on 10.5" in the back. 19s.
and yeah i just realized you're the fender rolling guy. i subbed to your thread just i can constantly be reminded that i need to save up for new tires and get the right sizes and PM you
ideally i'd love 295's because fat wheels/tires in the back just turn me on but i'm not sure if it'd work.. or be a smart idea at all. blah.

Are these setups safe for track time? Wouldn't the tire tend to bow out of the way in a hard corner and you end up running rim to the ground?
I have the standard 245 and 275s on 9.5/10.5, but I want to go to 255 and 285 with my next of tires. I'm not sure if I'm going to have to roll the rears with +22 offsets.

definitely not safe for track time.
Well, the kind of stretch I run is definitely not safe for track time.
A lot of ppl think they are stretched but they really aren't.
