    I run 225 45 16, and 205 50 16 rear and front, on 7.5" rims , 205 stetch 225 sits flush.

    I think u need the right stance to pull off the stretched look,like EGK 2's car (BTW, there loads of guys in the South Africa that dig ur car)

        My 15x8 rotas should be on my doorstep soon. Even though I hate it I'm going to run 205 azenis because that's what I have. Hopefully they wont stretch much since they are wider than many 205's.

          They'll fit, but they'll stretch

            Why not wait and put tires that you want on there? Aren't you the guy who is so adamant about how bad stretch looks and performs?

              Stretched look is a matter of taste...
              But handling/braking is another story

                    Just out of curiosity, do you own an e30 with stretched tires on 16x9's?
                    If you're ever in NJ, pm me and I'll gladly give you a ride in mine, handling and braking are on point.

                      The stretched tires is exactly why I like JDM better than euro styling.

                        This comin from a Vdub guy....its a matter of application. Use it right, and it looks good, but most likely it wont look too hot.
