yoko sdrives are great, vredestein are nice but large. nsII, i hear pleases a few people, i personally havent tried it or seen it.

bead seaters can be found on ebay for cheap, you can try the bicycle tire method, but it did not work for me.

best way was to put the rim on the ground and wedge something so that the tire is hoovering over the middle and then use the bead seater. its harder to have people holding the tire. because it will only seat one side at a time and that wont work. Kinda hard to explain. but if u want more info pm me, I might be able to send a diagram drawing lol

Does any one know were you can get one of those bead seater (cheetah)?
so Falken FK452's aren't good for stretching but i've heard they have a strong sidewall..

Yeah that is what I heard too. Also here is question, if you stretch a tire does it lose it rolling diameter some. What I am saying say a tire has a rolling diameter of 26.1 and you stretch it does it go down some.
