I think an 11.5 in the rear will cut it. Hanging with the highest HP SC in Florida has changed my perspective. I'll be running wide in the rear but not stretching too much. When you bring Stella down anyway Sherwin? You're missing out.

700hp with tires like that imagine how far your car will last without any body damage . Im only 23 and this is the look ppl are going for cause is kool now a days but it's pretty dum if you're looking to make power like that. Im not hating but just stating a fact!

im sorry to say this but 285 will bead and seat but not stretch. what you may call stretch, I call it being bold. personally, I've stretched a 245/30 on a 12 and a 285/30 on a 14.

first off that is my car and incase you guys didnt notice this is not a "what do you guys think" thread, if you dont like it GTFO, there are plenty of other treads that are what the majority considers the norm that you can go and agree with.

second who the hell are you guys to tell me what is safe and what is not, i built this car for me and iv been streching tires for longer then most of you have had your cars. iv been a member of this fourm for over five years built two sc's, im not here asking for acceptance or advice.

I think this set up Looks Dope..... And as long as the air pressure is maintained the stretch will be fine. =) A++ $C300
