Don't really have any good photos, sorry.

These are 19s, but 245/35 on a 11.5 none the less.

I get the worst feeling your stretching for aesthetics. If that is the case, I can no longer help you.

What wouldn't be practical about stretched tires? I still don't get why people ask that lol

Bluedevil, local guy to me has been running 215/40 on a 11 for like 2 years.

^ Really? i thought i was bad 275 on a 10.5 rim. I don't want to be stretching crazy. I think i can go 285 and i would be normal.

I'm sure people are willing to make some sacrifices stretching tires, but people ask because they do know how "stretched" too stretched is. I'm sure after a certain point it isn't a good idea.

nothing is a good idea if it's a daily driver.
