Yup, because that happens to every single car that has ever attempted a stretched tire.

More than you do. (but I know how you're going to go on and on about how you know sooooo much about this subject and how you've personally seen a car crash just because he had stretched tires.)

205 on a 10 isn't even that much stretch, I've seen much much more stretch than this, and everything was just fine.

It's only an inch on either side, but apart from putting excess stress on the sidewall and looking like a fagot, you're just wasting valuable wheel space. and extra 1.5 inches of tire will make a damn noticeable difference, but I guess you wanna look like one of those "euro", or "drifter" ****.

So since you know so much about stretching tires, apart from aesthetics, what is the advantage?

1. fitting the large, badass looking wheels I have
2. starting many, upon many internet arguments on retarded forums like this that only have closed-minded people who are 10 years behind the times.

I never said there was a performance advantage. Like I said, I'm not building my car to race, although I may slide it in the near future, but on my old stock wheels just to burn the rubber off them lol

I personally think they look stupid. That's just my opinion. Also you are one of the reasons, some certain people. Don't come on this site much. And I beg your pardon, on calling this site retarded. A lot of my Z knowledge was gathered from here. This site used to have a lot of traffic the first couple of years I was on here. It has dwindled since then. Because of certain users, who don't have much common sense. And people think it is a daycare center on the web. Instead of a useful Z forum.

Like I said, I used to have respect for you. I honestly don't have much anymore. Sorry man, you have brought me to type this.

You going LSD or welded? There's a local kid w/ a slammed S13 and welded diff... he swears by it. Corners at a normal speed is the only draw back.
