About a month or two ago I did. Still need to go lower in the rear. Once I get more of a stretch I'll be able to.

I just have a question. If your running stretched tires and it decides to blow up. Would you be riding on the rim? Will the rim be riding on the pavement until you can pull over?

depends on how stretched they are.

But if ANY tires blow up, you're gonna ride on wheel.

The tire will just be in the muddle of the wheel so it could ride on the rims a lil bit..

I was just wondering about that. I am only stretching a little bit but for the other guys. If you catch a flat are you worried about that?

Perfect answer here...

I've had a tire deflate on me before because I didn't check my tire pressure for a while. It rolled onto the inner part of the rim, didn't really cause any damage and tire was still good. PSI was in the low to mid 20's, not good for a super stretch, let alone a regular one.

I was just curious about my next set of tires is why i am asking. I am 275/35/20 and was thinking about going 285/30/20. I think the 285 would put me flush w/ the rims.

Anyone know what Nismo wheels these are? LMGT4s don't have lips that the ones in this pic.

Marcus I posted a big thing on stance nation but it wouldn't allow me to post it for some reason.

Anyways they are basically the nismo LE37. Came with a fat polished lip and mainly 10.5 widths with a +30 for "Z" fitment.

To my knowledge there are ZERO in North America.
