Aggressive Wheels and Stretched Tires....Welcome
This shows you know absolutely nothing about properly-sized tires for wheels, which makes sense given that you'd put 225s on a 12" wheel before you put 305s on a 10.5". However, if you take opinion out of the game and simply look at the tire manufacturers recommended combinations, you'd see that 305 falls snugly in the wheel size spread:

You must be right and all these tire manufacturers wrong. What do they know? You want a look, albeit a stupid one, while compromising safety and handling. I want to maximize the platform that Nissan gave me with added functionality, grip, and safety.

Are you seriously in the STRETCHED TIRE thread preaching about proper sized tires? If you loath this life style so much why do u bother even clicking the thread? The fact that u went as far as posting and labeling multiple links is pathetic, my google works fine.
I dont think i claimed a stretched tire performed better or was safer than properly proportioned tires...i said it look stupid when your tire bulges out past the rim.
Get outa my house & go play with a tonka truck. Im going to keep stretching tires for as long as your going to be clicking posts that dont interest you.

I understand everyone has opinions for certain types of wheel and tire setups but why come into a thread that is about a particular style and preach about it sucking and how you don't like it. Don't come in here. We didn't go find "you" praising what you like and tell you how your stupid for liking what you like. Seriously. Stay out and quit starting crap. What did "you" think would happen?

thanks for all the compliment everyone, cambers at -2.5(f) -3.0(r). 10mm spacers in the front too? if i did that then it would be like chean setup and i would have to run 215 but im not sure if he did any front fender work. i would've dumped it some more but the 285 in the rear was killing me with the rubbing.
status - if we was closer i would love to see how your wheels would look on my car

Me passing you is correct. Me dropping my jaw - in horror while pointing, laughing, and covering my own Nissan badge in shame, is also correct.
I would never put a 215 on an 11" wheel. I was just supporting the idea of having an opinion. I like the style. You shouldn't be in a thread that is about aggressive wheels and stretched tires to start **** about how you think they should have a 305 on there wheels. No one went find you to bust your chops about having a bulging tire setup on your wheels. I don't care what you think. A 305 is overkill on a 250whp car. Stop being an a.ss.
STRETCH TIRES FTMFW!!!!!!!!!!!
now what!
no one here will care how you hate this style.

Fair enough on your first few points. You seem level-headed, I've seen your other posts, which is why I'm surprised that you still state that a 305 on a 10.5" wheel is "bulging" - it is not. The minimum wheel width accepted throughout the industry for a 275 is 9", 295 on a 10" (although Hoosier oks it on a 9.5"), and 305 on a 10.5".
