175/50/16 on 7.5 wide

[Nsquared97]

175's on a 7.5? Why? I am running 175's on a 5.5 on my beater Subaru, I wouldn't run anything less than a 205 on a 7.5. And that's the very least i would run.

Run 9s up front like a real man.

[mtlbloodshot]

I have 9s for the rear.. That isn't a problem. It's the front that I'm questioning

[Philo]

toidi.

Get wider wheels, or wider tires. The stretch game is in width, not girth.

Thank you for understanding

These are all 15's but its still 7.5 175/50. Doesn't look bad at all.............

it's a 15, but you get the idea.

edit: also if you were a real fitment whore you'd know that you don't reduce the tire size, the wheel width goes up.

Damn hipsters and their stretch. Putting a 175 tire on a 7.5 is like...well I don't have a good analogy right now, but it's gay. Gay gay gay.

[Mr. Tasty]

you realize 7.5 * 25.4= 190.5 mm wide rim right? and you want to put a 175 mm wide tire on it? Idiot

Edit: Even then, It look silly. You need an actual WIDE wheel to pull off big stretch.

Seems like people don't stretch tire on this forum.. Everyone loves that oversized stuff

I don't mind it and they are telling you what it's going to look like, lol.
It's such a narrow wheel that you're trying to stretch and the 50 wall is going to make it look like a Mohawk.
