^ larger size FKs run fat, smaller size ones run small.

I think from 245+ they run large.

That is a question for the pros in here, but from what I have learned the 452s are known to split when stretched...

^ Yes. The sidewalls are known to separate (bubble) even when FKs aren't stretched.

Ok that's what I thought. Was just wondering why someone would attempt to stretch the 452, unless it's for show and not driven. I've heard the 512's are good though.
