Tires tires tires!!!!

No, for pretty much anything. Show me one real racer that uses a stretched tire.

Racing tires typically have a stiff enough sidewall that stretching wouldn't really add anything, you are just decreasing tread width.

I'd say that having a proper tire does a much better job of responding.

Here, I'll draw my own picture as well.

depends on the used i mean of course for daily driving i rather have the appropriate tire size.

Personaly i don't like the stretched look. Mariano's M3 is about the limits of stretch that looks good imo.

I'm not either, exposing the rim of the wheel looks pretty stupid to me. In fact I will probably never run them.

But it does improve the response of the tire.

Once again, some people do things for looks rather than performance. Is it that hard to get through your head?

i guess you E30 guys don't understand stretching tires it mainly for fitment a lot of drifters run 18 *9 or 10 or 11 etc and there cars are slammed so run wider tires with less sidewall.Then theirs the people that use stretched tires for show.:p me personality i like stretched tires when one right.

Well, the purpose of having wide wheels is performance, you're just fucking it up by running tiny ass tires.

you're talking out of your ass, and hopefully failed physics. For that matter, I hope you weren't allowed through geometry:

when you stretch tire wall, you're also altering contact surface of the tire.


hopefully I don't have to explain air pressure inside of the tire and normal acceleration of a rotating object to you.

That's cute. Did you draw that up yourself?



Take a close look; you may notice that the tire actually appears ballooned out if anything.

I allways thought people with these crazy stretched tires could put a belt on the outer wheel lip and then power farm implements off of the spinning wheel.

hahahahah why so much HATE

A thorough understanding of physics.

@ least you wont scuff your tires on a curb ;)

[Wh33lhop]

At least you can say its for cost effectiveness... Tiny tires are cheaper.

I don't get why people think this. What are you going to save by going with a 20 or 30mm narrower section width? Maybe 20 bucks a tire? So what, a whole 10% savings?

It's not at all about money.

Stupid title, stupid content. Welcome to R3V.

troof

you consistently prove yourself to be the most worthless poster on here.

Not by a longshot, but good try. Unless you quoted tde30 by accident and intended it for the op, in which case i would agree.


ps tyre stretch fans get your quarters ready:
