Stretched runflat

Does anybody know if it will be possible to stretch a Bridgestone RE050 225/35/19 tyre onto a 9J Rim only reason I ask is I've got a tyre sat in my shed with 7mm tread and got a puncher this evening and its when it happens you realise how much of a pain in the arse it is not having one.

I've got my eye on a 9J rear bmw wheel just would be nice to make use of that spare tyre.

Regards Dan

You MAY need someone with a bead blaster but tbh it should go on fairly easy even without. It's a little bit more stretch than my old rears which were Bridgestone rft's and they went on without a blaster.

I won the wheel so will wait till it arrives and hope for the best £30 for a MV4 can't argue with that mint face with a few cracks, don't care about that for a spare
