Damn, thanks!

I was debating on which color to paint mine and I think gold takes the pot so far. Its between black, gunmetal or gold, and have yet to see it in the other 2 colors on DG 18s.

Yea that was my exact set-up I want to run is 245/35 on 11.5 but not sure if it's safe I've asked people on the aggressive thread and it seems it's 50/50 some say it's retarded/unsafe and the tire will lose air others say they run it daily hmm decisions decisions but damn 215 on 9.5 that's really stretched haha do you lose air with that? Who stretched them for you?

Depending on the tire stretch ability. But if you get it sealed it should be all good homie.

You should ask donpisto I remember he has some crazy stretch.

215 on a 9.5 isn't as crazy as 245 on a 11.5...
i've got 225 on a 9.5 and it's a modest stretch, so 215's won't be crazy.

Yea I did see that. He has 20's but I suppose it's the equivalent look that I'm hoping for. I'm still sticking to 19's ftw! But thanks for the heads up maybe I'll ask him how it felt while driving & etc..

Hey HXS, the 9/9.5 stretch on the 215 looks dope but that wasn't what I was planning to run. My main question is how 245/35 will look and perform (i.e hold air,not bubble up) on a 11.5 currently looking at a new set-up and just wanna mak sure I can use my current tires cuz I just bought them lol
