Well, I don't know. He put a 215 on, which seems pretty rediculous already. The grammar expert might as well put a 165 for a "moar" stretched look. I thought thats what his goal was. I'm not really sure why you think I'm trying to be funny. So I guess 165 is considered stupid and 215 is not? I figure they both look equally stupid and dangerous. Where do you guys draw the line? I'm not really sure.

 

do they even make 165 19s? You tell me if its physically possible to fit 165 on there and maybe i'll consider your post seriously. have you heard of anyone losing their lives with stretched tires? If you think it looks stupid or unsafe cool, but dont be a smart *** and say your being serious when your clearly trying to be funny.

 

I think I went over your head.

 

haha nah we're cool, it's not my car. Im just bored at the moment.

 

It doesn't take a grammar expert to spell ridiculous correctly You should install Mozilla Firefox, it underlines all grammatical errors for you.

Do you honestly think it's possible to stretch a 165 onto a 9.5 in. wide wheel? There's absolutely NO way possible. It was hard enough to get this 215 on my 9.5. I will PayPal you $50 if you can do it. Seriously. How is running a 165 even close to my 215??

 

People only resort to correcting spelling and grammatical errors on the internet because that's the only thing they can desperately come up with to try to offend someone. It's only because they aren't smart or witty enough to post something of worth. Acting like a spell check and that you've never mispelled a word is lame. Afterall, you seem to know that firefox underlines mispelled words don't you. Try to make an effort to get a life mmkay pumpkin?

There is no way you could paypal me enough money to even put a 215 on a 9.5" wide rim and drive on it because I'm not a retard.

Annnnnd, I think my point with the 165's went over your head too. Lean like a cholo?

 

You guys act like I'm the first person to put a 215 on a 9.5" wide rim...I've seen crazier stretches than that..

 

I believe the point he is making is that it is very unsafe.

 

Semi stretched tires on cheap-*** wheels or very stretched tires on cheap-*** wheels. Covering it with chocolate or putting a cherry on top of pooh still leaves pooh as the base, but I like your current sizes way better.

 

OP, don't worry about it
going to get a million guys shooting sarcasm at you, no harm done IMO.

 

Whenever there is a thread about people wanting to stretch tires, people will have to get their 2 cents in (its unsafe, stupid, not practical, less rubber than stock). I've heard it all. In your case it might be worse because you already had "proper" sized tires and then decided you wanted to get rid of them and go for a more stretched look.

That will be looked down upon most members on this forum. But its your car. Now just watch out for potholes and check your tire pressure regularly, and go on doing what you want to do with the car. It's your money and decision in the end.

IMO it looks good but, with the rims that I just spend a lot of money for, I would feel somewhat stupid for stretching the tires and making it more prone to bend a lip, because I couldn't just get a spare rim of the rims I'm getting because they won't be made anymore.

 

Trust me, I'm not worrying about it. I've always been the type of person that listens to other peoples' advice and opinions...but in the end does not base my decisions solely off what others think.

Thanks for the advice. If I had a set of legit TE's or any Volks/Works for that matter...I would not have gotten the 215's for the front. But I don't....I have Varrstoens that are worth $300-$350 per rim...if I screw one up I won't be too terribly pissed.

 

eat the pooh first then eat the cherry....

i dont like stretching tires but you are the one running the risk pike..So like i said sell me your 275s

 

Keeping the 275's in the garage for now...if I decide to sell then I'll PM you.

 

every1 in this thread is gay

 

That means your gay too.

 

hahaha Will stfu!

Don't mind him.....somebody must have left him out of his cage last night. I tried to tell his roommates not to let it happen again

 

More importantly, nevermind the fact that he's putting other peoples lives in danger...

 

hahah omg dude seriously?
