clear up the question???? you asking how small of a tire you can fit...just for a stretched look????? a 225 40 18 would probly be the smallest you could go while not being totally undersized, but a 235 40 would run closer to the factory tire dia. are you lowered at all?? running spacers??? details my friend. the point of stretching tires is to be able to fit your rims to your car not just to look cool 18x9.5 +25 wouldnt need a stretch at all.. 245 40 would fit fine.. but say they are 18x9.5+0 then yes i could see the need to run a stretched tire
currently running a 18x10+18 with a 235 40 up front i might add a 10mm spacer tho and drop down to a 225 40 once my New stances arrive so i can go lower.. Currently on Tein super streets

I have a wide body kit and want to put 18' deep dishes on my car because I have a 3" spacer in the back all ready if I'm not mistaken and it still doesn't come out to the side wall fender.

Hello wheel gurus. Quick question on tire sizes. I'm thinking about getting some 19x8.5/9.5 with 17/25 offsets front and rear respectively. How would 225/35 fronts and 245/35 rears look and fit? Any suggestions? Car is stock height as of now but will drop, lower, pull as needed. Thanks

Will it fit flush or poke Hella??
So right now on my sc I have work varanzas 19x10 +38 n 19x11 +35 with 225/35/19 n 245/35/19 falkens stretched. Fenders rolled. Jic coilovers.
Now I want to pick up this set of ssr sp3 same sizes 19x10 n 19x11 -1 off set all around on kumhos..do I need more fender work or will I be fine?

Rear: Poking. Needs about 20mm pull with maxed out negative oem camber.
Overall very nice fitment. If you do a long clean pull in the rear, it will look almost oem.

^25mm spacer. Don't change tire. Less tire, less scrape. Skinny/stretched tires look awful only when the wheel is sunken. You can change bigger tire to front if your rear tire stretch doesn't match with the front stretch.

Just afraid of getting my wheels bent from pot holes and such. I have 19x10 275/35/19s in the rear so i really cant fit that in the front plus it would look just plain ugly if i switched them. Il probably throw on some spacers and lower it some more if needed. New tires arent so cheap.
