tire size?

i am getting ready to buy some wheels for my 06 sedan. my question is what is a good size tire to buy if i am going for the stretched look? front wheels is 18 x 7.5 with +42 offset (2.5 " lip). rear is 19x 10.5 with 25 offset ( 5" lip). thanks, also will tein s techs be a good spring? not going for performance, just looks and not a super rough ride. thanks for any input.

being on springs you won't need to stretch your tires, don't get stretched tires just for the "look" because if you are not slammed it won't look right

+1.. your offsets arent aggressive enough to warrant stretched tires.


edit: your fronts wont be aggressive enough on a sedan..

Why is the fron only 18x7.5 and rears 19x10.5?

whats the widest i can go with a 19" wheel in the front and not rub if only lowered and inch or 1.5 in? i have always had hondas, and never had to deal with wheels this big or offests or anything. so i can kinda losy.

ive seen 19x9.5 with lower offsets in the +20s... depending on how much camber you're willing to have, you can go lower and lower....

check out this thread.. ShanesG is an expert on aggressive offsets/negative camber/strechted tire fitment.
