Club was: Super Low Offset Club
Now is: Super Flush Offset Club
Should be: Super Flush WHEEL Club

Offsets are not flush, wheels are.

Damn, so much hating.

John, Cressida looks fuckin great.

BTW, most people I know who have to stretch is so when the suspension moves, the tires wont hit the car's body. Easy enough.

are they running stretched tires to fit the tire? or to fit the rim? i dont understand because people are running the same tires on narrower wheels without stretching and fitting fine.

case in point ARob's friend with the 240sx, 215's on a 9.5 inch wheel. Those 215's would fit on a 6-7 inch wide wheel just fine and still fit inside the wheel well.

The added rim width is just a waste of money just to be able to say i have wide wheels and a sweet JDM Tyte look.

Even supramad77. 265's will fit on a narrower wheel without issues. Putting them on a 10 inch wheel is doing nothing but adding cost for the wider wheel and trying to achieve a look.

running stretched tires wont allow you to run a wider tire without rubbing just allows you to run a wider wheel.

I run a semi stretch tire because it gives me the stance I was looking for. Plus there is no point in running larger then a 245 on my 100HP of furry.

And as I said before. If you are going to talk shit go make a new thread. This one is already clutterd with non related stuff already.

I brought these wheels with the 265's already on. Yes i could run 295 or maybe more. I would need to roll the arches for anything wider than i have at the moment. I might go 285 in the future but i like the look that i get from the tyres the way they are. They are so tight to the wheel they are more like an elastic band wrapped around the rim.
