odd widths, but the only real option you have up front is a 225/35 - which is barely a stretch at all. the equivlant out back would be 255/35.

with those weak widths, what are your offsets? chances are you don't even need to stretch, unless you're running large spacers in the negative offsets. need to know if you have a coupe or sedan too.

edit: your post in the "questions about wheels/tires" thread shows you have a sedan. I can't help with the offsets.

Better way to go about this is.... buy a full set of rears and run 10s all the way around!

You're confused man.

You can't stretch **** onto an 8.5" wheel not to sound like a dick here but this isn't a honda. You need to run some width when you're dealing with 18s and 19s.

You need MINIMUM 9" up front and 10" out back to pull off a staggered stretched look. Either that or don't stretch at all because it will look like straight up ****. Like I said 10s all the way around is your best bet, and as long as the rear is a little more aggressive I'll bet you your car you won't be able to tell they aren't staggered.

Yeah. Stretching would very unnecessary with those weaka$s offsets even on a sedan. Just slap on some 245/40/20s 275/35/20s for the rear. Call it a day

Wrong tire sizes, for a V35 you want 235/35/20F 275/30/20R
