Looking to get a stretch on some 18x11 & 18x13
I want to put on some stretched tires and then sell it. Its hard to find examples of a stretch on the wheels because the size is so extreme most people dont have them.
When I got the 18x13 they had some Dunlap 285 45 18s on there and it was too extreme for me.
I was thinking of going with these sport truck tires because they are so damn cheap and I just want to get the car rolling.

I need some help. I need to fix my car up good enough to sell.

those tires are like 2" bigger diameter than stock...
if you want something stretched, how about 295/35-18... that will be a closer... 305/35-18 would work too... maybe 295/35-18 rear, 285/35-18 front? would be pretty stretched, but, the 295's are supposed to work on 11" wide wheels as it is... should stretch to fit 13"...
335/30-18 would actually be the proper size to put on the rear, with 295/35-18 for the front.... definitely need a widebody kit for that...

335/30-18 is what im running right now, they really really costly. The k2w already have a slight stretch. I had a tire off a F50 (same size) and there was zero stretch.
Im already widebody. You can run 285 45 18 with these wheels with camber and a pull on a stock body car.

Thanks LiCelsior
So i got the BFs 295 35 18. I think they look great. They were more money than I wanted to spend but I was running out of options.
I must say I had an excellent time dealing with discount tire. Even though it was my fault for getting the wrong size they paid my return shipping and gave me a discount on the BFs, I payed 486 shipped the set.

I worked for DTC for about 5 years and I'd say 99.8% of transactions through there have that type of customer service... Glad yours was the same!
