Stretch Tire Guru's!!
 

Ok, I'm about to pull the trigger for some Falken FK452s but I'm getting mixed opinions. Wheel size is 19x8.5 & 19x10, IMO I want to run 215/35 & 235/35 giving it a bit of a stretch but not too much. Is this a good stretch or overkill?

235 on a 10 is a crazy stretch cause im runnin a 245 o a 10 looks crazy already..ur doing almost a 3inch stretch

IMO, that would be a good stretch as FK452 runs a bit wider compared to other tire companies... but unless your running a +22 or lower, i dont see any reason to stretch on your isx50 :)

The stretch is cause I'm lower then you :D:D

I used to run a 235 452 on my 10. They run pretty midland to wide so it wont be that much stretch. I have run as small as a 215 on a 10, but that was on the back end of a little paperweight car of a VW.

meh, stretch 'em JUST enough to clear, no more, no less.

the point is to have the MOST tire for the aggressive offset, not the least....

I have a friend thats running a 235 on a 10.5 thats how I figured 235 on a 10 is good.

wew...u on air now??? post some updated pics after you figured things out...

thats a 245 35 on a 10inch wheels.pretty wild for me since i live in philly

Im curious, does offset and size of the wheel change things? Cause you have 20s

Depends on the brand of tires and the sidewall, they all run differently in regards to stretch.

here are some pictures to give you an idea from a really good thread in about this on VSC.

Well its Falken FK452s Wheel is 19x10 with a 44 offset

which would again lead me to question why you really need to stretch at all with such a conservative offset :uh:
