Error 404: Stretch not found

Got these for a friend, finally mounted them on the wheels this Friday.

Gdup35sedan told me this specific size when I requested what was a good and safe stretch on 19x10, so we got it... and it wasn't that stretched, w/e... next time.

Tenzo Type-M Machined Black
255/35/19 on a 19x10
235/35/19 on a 19x8.5

Thinking these would be mad stretched, we were wrong ! Theres barely any stretch on the tires, they look like 275's on a 10" wheel. Next tires are def. 245 in the rear and 225 in the front

Dropped on Tien Basic Coilovers, front is slammed and barely clear anything, the rear was dropped more after we installed the wheels, but will drop more when spacers and lug nuts come in.

What size spacers do you guys think he should get?

Thinking 15mm in the rear, 10mm in the front.

Getting anodized blue RAYS extended lugnuts this week.

Here are some pics courtesy of me

Wheels are FUKING CUTE !

damn those look good. I have been thinking about getting a set of these myself. Does it look like a 275 would fit without rolling the fender?

Why do you want to stretch the tires if it isn't necessary?

So when he has spacers and lowered, it'd just fit and have an aggressive look.

Looking good. Should be even sicker with spacers and a drop.

Go on there and see what tire sizes to use to get an idea of a stretch.

The brand & design of the tire will determine whether it looks stretched. For example, Falken tires look stretched on a lot of wheels because they have rounded shoulders. The exact same size Kumho tire won't look as stretched since they have squared shoulders.

You can have an aggressively flush setup without stretching the tires TOO much. If memory serves me correctly, sin3 is running 245 front 265 rear with negative offsets.

those wheels are very sexy. but they like the time attack stlye wheel shave to have correct fitment or they dont look right. you need about 15m rear and 10m front and have to get ride of the wheel gap. get your tire to sit right under your fender and your set. nice looking set up once you get it done. good luck

I've had the Type M's in bronze for a few months now. Great looking rims for a good price.
