Aggressive Wheels & Stretched Tires: Post 'Em Up! [[Some NSFW]]
Help?
i was told to check out this thread, this is my 05 widebody G35, i was screwed over on my rims so I put on 20" an I knew they wouldn't look good/fit right. So I took them off after 600 miles and put on my old rims/tires. A neighbor didn't like an argument we had so she slashed my tire. (It was cheaper to buy a set of 350z rims/tires for $400 rather then replace 4 tires on stock G35 rims.) Currently I'm using the 350z rims, sold the stock rims but still have the 20" rims and adapters (for sale).
I need to find the right side rim that will fill the gap without spacers.
245 and 275--30/20 with spacers still had like an inch wider to fill.
do I need 305s?
Love GTRs can't afford them or their insurance so I built this

What I've learned from this post/ forum.... don't ask questions, be a mechanic, or take time to sift thru all the other bullshit I'm not looking for. I love the look but after getting screwed over on the wrong size rims to fit the widebody of course it will look wonky until the wheels are one.

Got the idea from my350z. So post up your pix of your aggressive wheels and stretched tires! Remember, this thread isn't about whether
you like the stretched tires or not, so don't bother.
I'll start off the thread with some pix from my350z!

It's also a forum rule to keep your questions to a single thread as to not add MORE bullshit the next guy has to deal with. Your thread in the wheels/tires sub-forum asking the same questions you asked here is the right way to do things so thanks for that.

Confused?
You'll have to excuse what is probably a stupid question .......but,
Why in the world would you want to "stretch" a tire like that?
If you want wider rubber can't you just buy wider wheels that fit the tire properly to accommodate the wider rubber?
Seems like stretching the sidewalls like that is unsafe and not how the tire is supposed to fit.
Please enlighten me?
