I'm running Nankang and Nexen tires. I've had good results stretching cheapy tires because the sidewalls are hard and stiff.

 

what are your specs?? tires and offset pleasee

thanks

 

i run Nexens. i just looked through a lot of the japanese magazines and noticed lots of guys running nankangs and nexens, but my local shop didnt have nankang on the shelf so i went for nexen.

 

OP what's your offset/width?

 

19x8.5+28/9.5+29

 

never had a problem w/ hankook tires, minimally stretch'd.

 

what he said + spec on tires/name brand as welll.... thanks

 

I would run a 225/35 Nankang NSII and 245/35 in the rear.

 

I had the same issue with my 452's-only on the front for some reason. I tried to go with Nexen or Sunny too, but they didnt offer the sizes I needed. So it was back to the 452s... Hey goodluck with what ever you choose.

 

god daymmnn are 452s that bad...

 

I've had no problems with my 452's but they're not stretched. It seems they have a hard time handling alot of stretch.

 

my buddy was running 275/30/19 nitto nt555...hit a pothole...got a bubble on the sidewall edge....junkie tires.

 

whats worse INSIDE bubble or OUTSIDE bubble haha

 

Nankang 225/35 Nexen 245/35 FTW!!!!!! haha

 

I just found a bubble on my tire last night too adjusting my new coilovers... And I have Toyo Proxes4, these aren't cheap tires either, 180/each for 18"s (IIRC)!!!
