I gots 215/30/18s on my Titan, on a 18x10.....What do you know about dat homo...

 

Keep that up and Prinz will ban you

 

nice look maxboost925

 

your stretch is the suck...9 wides? you need 225/35s, at the MOST....even a 215/35

forgot the just messin with a fellow N FL max owner

 

Don't make me put on some 185/20/18s

Regardless, we mod our cars to look the way we like them, not others. To each his/her own....

 

Now you see why I put 4 popcorns out.

 

Stretching the sidewalls will give the tire a more "direct" feel as well, as the sidewalls won't roll over when you corner.

I dunno, in a way I kind of dig the look... but IMO it doesn't really fit a Maxima too well. I doubt I'll ever roll on stretched sidewalls though, all that extra tread is just too appealing to me.

 

Stretched tires aren't good for cornering, in fact its a little dangerous.

Drifters stretch their tires, but they don't use them for grip, they slip them so it's different in that situation.

 

Well, not as dangerous as they'd have you believe. But the difference should be noticeable even without taking the tires to the limit. Have you noticed anything?

Well, they run stretched all around. Although not put under the same stress as, say, road racing, the fronts need to have a good amount of grip when you're drifting.

While I haven't checked in the least, I think you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who's had problems due to cornering hard on a stretched tire.

BTW, you may "only" be 18, but you were the only one not acting like a teenager back there. To hell with 'em.

 

Haha, thanks, I appreciate that.

 

Looks nice Boost! I like it cause its different........
Although I did like the Comps, Post some more pics of the finished product

 

If you didn't know now you know for sure how this org is. I won't catagorize everyone here but for the most part if it's outside of stock then it's ****.

Loved your car more before but I won't knock it. Especially being in the "infant" stage of the new outcome. Good luck man... Be easy.

 

Thanks Orgullo. Your car is coming along too. I want to see the end product.

 

I have stretched tires . I have 215/35/18 on a 18x8.5 rim on my 97. I like it. its not for everyone i will tell you that. And in the 3 weeks i have had it i have hit the curb 6 times lol.

 

That's less of a stretch but you have less profile than I do. I'm more cautious when it comes to parking.

 

dey know you're true balla' VIP when you're rockin the multiple curb rashes.....

 

ummmmmm grant... please lower your car NOW!

 

So you pretty much have ZERO wheel gap. And with the stretched out tires it makes you look like you have even less wheel gap.

 

That doesn't look right AT ALL Your profile is way to small, should have gone with 45...or atleast 40

 

I lowered the rear already Brian, it's fully tucking with the lip almost touching the fender. working on the fronts.

You'll see at HIN, looks much better than that height now.

 

carbon fiber hood and trunk? whoa...and JDM looking wheels. Nice...i guess i said everything right...still learning :]

 

Thats going to be really low lol.

 

I want to see this car when I'm done.

ibyouhavetorollyourfenders

 

I rolled them already.

 

haha, no joke.

 

how about you just post pictures
because i don't want to go to HIN

 

yes post pic of dropped. it'll look alot better.

 

Ok deal - as soon as the front's done. wheel studs are messed up.
