I'm getting sick of buying new tires!! And now I find these!
I so want a set!!
I think these would be bad ass on a set of 02 SVT wheels or my old man's wheels, disco'd blacked out 02 SVTs, spaced out 10mm.

I'm no expert... but isn't that going to be a pretty skinny tire?

Yes, that would result in a very skinny tire... the result giving a badass stretch on a 17' rim...
Thus giving this effect to the tire...

Those are getting mounted today(were). Picking them up tommorow...

But those are too JDM for stretch. However the 02 SVT's or a nice stretch on a set of EAPs would look badass!!

then i come along and jam a stubby screw driver inbetween the rim and bead and pop the hole shabang off the rim. just playin, you need to seek help 02, this strech thing i fear is getting out of hand, next youll want to widen the chromy and section 8 inches out the roof and floor pan!!! :lol: that way it will look as if your doors dont quite seal to the car :lol: :lol:

Discount Tire call today, apparently such a tire has never been made, or they can't find anything...so I guess I'm SOL and you guys won't have to worry about stretch on a 17...haha.
