Is it dangerous...
to run a some stretch?
Currently I am running 245/30/20 on a 20x8.5 wheel (not stretched at all). I am planning to run 225/30/20 to accomodate my drop.
Is it possible that the tires stretch enough that it will expose only the rim when running over a pothole with this kind of set up? Leaving me with a bent rim?
How about a blowout when hitting a pothole, of course there will be a higher chance but is the chance so high that its dangerous?
Thanks for the input

I currently have 235/35 on a 19x10 (mild strech) and a 275/30 on a 19x12 (massive stretch) and I drive it daily.
a 225 is no problem on a 8.5. Even my old car I carn 235/40 on a 27x9.5 and it was fine and that still more strech than what you're looking at.
All the sizes you guys posted should be fine
Also I've had 255/35 on 18x11 and no issues.
