You say this, but have you ever been in a vehicle with stretched tyres?
No, till then STFU |

to the OP it sounds like you have already made your mind up. be warned tho that if you dont declare it and you have a blowout which causes an accident you will be in the s**t with your insurance co because its classed as a potentially dangerous mod

would you wear a pair of shoes that were too small just for the looks? not only that if you get a blow out and you kill someone how would you deal with it?

I have massive stretch on the rear im runnin 9j with 195 40 r 16 as long as u keep an eye on psi u wont have a problem all my mates with big bhp drift cars run big stretch so if thay can with stand it why wont road cars??
This is taken off a forim who rung big stretch so these guys no wot they are talkin about
Quote:
When lowering I have run much thinner tyres on 9js whilst drifting and never had any problems or (SAFETY ISSUES) as long as the tyre is kept fully inflated and not running silly camber, there is nothing unsafe or illegal for that matter the law only states that tyres should be fitted as side wall instructions and as most tyres these days dont have side wall fitting instructions, there isn't any legal issues a 195 tyre is 7.677 inchs wide (at the tread) not full width of tyre.

could you just imagine having to do this everytime before a journey? I can just imagine it will become annoying in about a week
