Post your pics of your FC's with stretched Tires.

i am looking for pictures of your fc's with stretched tires.

also if you could tell me the width of the rims and offset of the rims as well, and what size spacers you are using.

edit: also what kind of suspension you have as well. (ie. coilovers , springs , etc. )

Ill save you the trouble and say your somewhat on your own, the crowd here doesnt favor that look setup too much and usually give negative comments regarding it. Theres only like a handful of guys who are into the jdm brand big wide wheels low offset stretch tires.

I have a minor stretch on mine, but like Hypertek said, most people on here frown on the stretched tire on big rims look.

A pic of mine is at the bottom of the thread below. I have 205/55/R16 mounted on a 16x8 rim. Like I said, only minor stretching as the standard for the rim is only 225/50/R16. The only reason I put such a skinny tire on my car is so the tire would fit under the fender, otherwise I'd go bigger.

Take note: Shika's combo is very nice because of his selection in wheels. High quality/exotic SSR multi piece wheels.. Wheels in a correct aggressive staggered size for a RWD.

If they had been XXR, or something 18x7 cheap ebay special high subaru or honda sized offset, they would look horrible, than I would agree with some of the guys and say those wheels look horrible.

Shika if you threw in a 4 point cage, maybe some door bars and then dropped your vert it would be definitely be one of the sexiest cars on here....

The only thing I don't like about that vert is that it isn't mine.
