Your rear tires look too stretched. Should have gone with something like 265/30/19.

Going for the Stretch Look.. If i add a spacer what size are you talking about? As it sits now on big bumps the rim is a credit card away from the fender... any spacers would mean the rim would be on the fender. 265/30 would not be any stretch, and need a lot of camber to fit, don't you think so? Keep the reply's coming!! ![]() |

i'm not a stance expert, but i think that's fantastic. i don't like it when the tires and wheels extend beyond the car, but with yours, i think it's perfect.

it look likes its being more tuck than poke, maybe a 5-10mm spacer on the rear with camber that will becomes poke.

OT? I've often wondered what happens when you corner really hard? Is there chance it will roll right off? Anyway, to each his own. I like having a little cushion on the edge but I get what you're going for. And therefore, it's a win.

seems like it would be really easy to get curb rash. I really don't like this style of stretched tires - just doesn't make sense to me.
But that said, if you like this style, it does appear you are doing it right. I saw a miata the other day with a tire so stretched, it tucked up inside the fender, but the rim was so wide, the lip poked on the outside of the fender. It was totally retarded, but nonetheless, it fit this style perfectly. |

Whats the point of the "stretch" look? IMO it looks like your tires don't even fit? Not the biggest fan of "stretched tires" However, the flush-ness looks AWESOME. ![]()

Digging the stance, not so much the wheels, just never been a fan of CH's otherwise loving the way you sit. ![]() *I'll respond to my "no such thing as too stretch" I've seen 195's stretched on a 9" wheel...that was a bit much |

I was able to fit 10" +20 with a 265/30 on my e92 rears... The 245s for you are unnecessary.
With that being said, since you already went the route of 245s, space it out somewhere between 5-10mm (measure your clearance to your fender), pull the fenders, and camber the wheels. |
