Stretched tires

Just curious to see if anyone covered this. I'm curious to see what would be a good so I start to stretch on a 17 x 7" wheel, a 16 x 8" wheel, and a 17 x 8" wheel.

7" and 8" are tough to stretch on because there are not really tires skinnier than those wheel widths. Forget 7" at all, for 17x8" 195/40 will be your best stretch, still barely any. Now 16x8 has 165/45 but they are very small tires can be sketchy in rain and are like 150 per tire due to the rarity.

So it looks like my best bet is to get a set of 16x8 wheels in white. Thanks!

And I don't really want massive stretch anyway. Just enough.
