- Tires run small, true, and large just like shoes. One brand will fit your feet, or your wheels, differently than others. Hankooks run true.
- SIdewalls... the cheaper brands generally stretch MUCH better due to their sidewall having more elasticity (assuming to prevent roll when turning). The ones I know of run smaller, however (Achilles & Nankang). This doesn't mean that tires that run larger don't stretch as well. General tires run large, but they stretched well. But there are other tires out there that won't stretch as well. Part of that is due to the type of sidewall (rounded or squared). The more the stretch the tougher a squared sidewall will be to stretch.
- Brand. There are some that you just don't ant to stretch because either they won't stretch well or because they're known to have issues when stretching. The most obvious to be pointed out will be run flat tires and the second most well known tire not to stretch is the Falken 452. That's not to say other Falkens aren't a good choice to stretch, there are some that are. I'm not sure of the model but I think it's the 512's that are pretty good.
I'd definitely do some research on tire brands and see what tires people have used to do extreme stretches. I've personally used Hankook tires and liked them. Also I used Nankangs and Achilles. The Achilles I didn't quite like just because they seemed very rounded and supposedly stretch very well, but for an extreme stretch I don't think they would work too well. I liked the Nankangs and I have a buddy that ran them and they lasted a while as well. I also ran Toyo Proxes 4's, but those won't stretch well for extreme stretches. For a normal or slightly aggressive, great tire to stretch.

Yes, tire brand is crucial. There is a bunch of depth involved with that. I'll outline some of the difference.

by any chance do you know how good the megan track coilovers are?
