"Flush" look (test fit on my car)

How about you find one tire manufacturer that recommends putting a 205 tire on a 9 inch rim, and then we can have a discussion.

Why wouldn't you call for phxdemon to state his source also, as I requested? He stated an opinion; I did not. I asked for information. Something wrong with that?

I'm sure Toyota doesn't recommend half the crap we do to our cars, but they in point of fact run better and/or make more power -- so what's your point about manufacturers?

Because 99.9% of people don't stretch their tires, and its widely accepted as bad for the tire, and the rest of the car.

It doesn't offer performance gains, find me an auto crosser running a ridiculous stretch and placing.

Useless argument....99.9% of the population doesn't modify their car or even know what "tire stretching" is given this frame of context.


OBVIOUSLY....autcrossing is totally different than being on a track or on the street. It's night and day....
