Frobius Posted December 5, 2010 Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 Each to their own but I think that unless you are running a v dub of some description about 9mm off the deck on 13inch alloys then the law is that stretched tyres look s**t. But that's just me, oem homo número uno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autosri Posted December 5, 2010 Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 I remember reading somewhere when one of my mates was running wide wheels and it was an official document The tyre tread must be inside the arch at the heighest part and the wheel could stick out by up to 3 inches along as no sharp edges where displayed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorge- Posted December 5, 2010 Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 Yeah, thats a reason behind stretching thinner tyres, so you can get away with wider wheels and still be within the law Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natedogg Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 welcome to club hate noclue - you'll get flammed on here for words like sretch and poke but a few of us still do it!! lol look forward to pics - i think the car has some good potential from the first pic - smaller tyre, negative camber and a slam and it could be money man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n1k_ns Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 I don't know if its cause its a saloon, or the style or the wheels or your standard-ish car, or too much poke, or what.... But imo that just doesn't look good, at all. Sorry I don't have a problem with poke & stretch, on some cars it can look cool. But not on yours. It just looks broken.

Jorge- Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 Until you get that down at very least another 40mm, I'm gona agree. Needs putting into the tarmac for wheels like that. Could fit your fist inbetween your arch gaps, needs to be so tight you can't get your little finger in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
