first off, I'm glad neither you not anyone else was hurt.
second off, **** stretching. i prefer more rubber than less.
I ran 265s on my 17 x 9s.
Bridgestone potenza run flats. had a blow out on the highway once (due to slight camber from lowering.) heard a pop and knew what it was but the ride didn't change drastically and the ride height on that side barely changed. now I swear by rfts.
and damn, your car is so low you can't even get your scissor jack under them. that **** cray

Heres how the face looks, i painted them with spray paint, they look more f'ked up before lol. Corroding and crap under the clear coat. It bothered me so much lol. I stripped it, sanded it, then painted it again.

Also, the ripped tire is the back right. You can also see the dent on the rim.
