  • Firestone tyres - Stretch?

    Hi Guys,

    I am waiting on some OZ wheels to arrive for my daily E30. Good size tyres are tough to find in 17" so I am struggling to find a stretch I am willing to daily on and will also allow the wheels to fit the car.

    I had my mind set on Federal SS595 as they are a meaty tyre for their size. 205/40/17 on 8.5 and 215/40/17 on 10". Well stretched but hopefully beefy enough to daily drive.

    However a local guy is selling a pair of 80%+ tread Firestone tyres in 215/40 for $150. I have asked him the specific model of tyre.

    Can anyone comment on how these go for stretch? Also do they tend to run narrow, true or wide?

    Any input appreciated.

    they will fit but youre going to get even more stretch though, possibly more than youre going to want.
