Many shops won't install or perform many services. Why? Lawsuits that aren't their fault but will come back on them. Lots of tire shops won't mount/balance tires you didn't buy from them either. I guess buying tires off the internet is 'not safe'?
The shop that sponsors my car will not install short shift kits. Why? Owners that think they are racecar drivers money shifting. Then coming back and blaming some sort of 'install issue' was the reason. It happened more than once so no more SSK installs.
I don't really 'like' stretch tires as I perfer tracking my car. Ask Mike. If I find a wheel I REALLY want and it requires stretch... I will stretch a tire to hell and back if need be to get it mounted.

Trust me, I've searched for hours on hours for some proof that they are unsafe, and I came out empty handed.

If you don't like stretched tires that's fine. But if you're trying to argue their performance on a DD street car save your breathe. There are thousands, probably millions of people running stretch and they aren't blowing tires and crashing their cars because of tire failure/mal-performance.

Austin, there are probably thousands of those Civics and Cavaliers riding with the gel coat bodykits too. Doesn't make them not shitty, either.

Austin, FYI. This is where I was coming from.

:D

Originally posted by Charlie View PostYea, I was gonna say, I wanna see the average CCA tech inspector go nuts on a ghetto-modded beat to hell e28. I'm sure it would pass tech.
*cough*
I don't even want to imagine how awful that thing drives with its broken suspension geometry like that.
