(singleblackmaledotcom tho lol!


ahhhh I see that now loL! Don't they make them for your bumper?

LOL i didn't even notice that.. I just looked for the pik on Google LMBO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think you're gonna have a hard time getting a decent stretch on an 8" wide wheel unless you go super narrow, which might be hard to find with a low profile for 17's. Even a 195 wouldn't be much of a stretch.

That's what i figured and i REFUSE to run rubberbands on my car for fitment. Camber it is

On the falken 512's I once had, the 205/40's stretched very well on my 17x8" wheels. It just depends on the tire usually, go with what the people suggest/recommend.

and mine will sit

wow that is gonna look nuts! i agree the nankangs are prob your best bet

yeah, too bad 512 are discounted at 205/40r17

I'm hearing the ns1's suck tho

I'm honestly surprised an 8" et-1 pokes that much on your car. It seems some car manufacturers are so conservative when it comes to wheel fitment/specs. You're definitely gonna have to dial in some camber

[244Brick]

yea there is little room for fitment on these without decent camber and big pull

The Federal 595's do run wide. They're blocky if that makes sense.

I got one of the last sets of Falken 512's. I have 215/45 on a 7" wheel and it almost has stretch lol

I've got achilles atrs, stretched mildly, but I love them. Great ride, high treadwear, and they're cheap!

[Randomofodication]

oh damn this is gonna be cool

Yeah that's a problem for me.. I want to lay out, so i need stretch to go around the bumper and fender brackets.. Or cut it down some.. we'll see after these tires come in

REally, what's your setup? I was thinking of running ATRs on my rear 9s

oh damn this is gonna be cool

Thanx bro, feels good coming from another unique and different chassis enthusiast

I LOVE YOU JAKE!!! haha

[SD202]

Yes. federals do run wide. Achilles ATR sport have been my best bet so far with cheaper tires that stretch good and dont bubble I also noticed that the federals bubble a lot easier.

[o9w211]

acceleras run narrower from what my tire/wheel guy tells me. i'm personally running achilles atr sport and they stretch nicely.

[244Brick]

Ok thanx a lot for the input guys.. I think we narrowed it down

17x8/9

1. Falken 512 205/40 discontnued
2. Fuzion Zri/Hri - good if i can find cheap
3. Achilles ATR - best best for price
4. acceleras - don't know they perform (i don't want to die)

Anyone else wants to chime in? I really need a good stretch on the 8", which is my biggest concern

[Blumagic]

just to be difficult

I think Toyo Proxes 4 are on the narrower end of the spectrum.
