    If anyone else out there is wondering LEXANI tires do streatch! Just had them installed. Also on a side note, the boys @ HW Motorsports hooked it up. Professional device, extremely fair pricing and the tech even went as far as to shoot my rusty shoot out calipers with black paint.

I really liked how they 512's looked with the lip protector, so I would prefer whatever tires I elect to run in place of the 512's have that too. I'm picky.....lol.

    Did you guys find any tire to replace the discontinued 512's? I'm having the same problem with 215/40/18 falken has discontinued those too

    I know v12's run narrow but the sidewalls suck on those tires bubble city!

    I've got my Falken 512's stretched with good results.

    Front is a 195/50 on an 8 inch wheel and the back is a 205/60 on an 8 inch wheel.

    Stretch XL tires?

    Hey

    Nankang NS 2 can be ordered as a XL tire, with reinforced tire walls(215/40 ZR18 89V XL). The wheel is 18 x 9,5.
    Can you stretch these tires with xl walls, or are they getting to stiff?

    I have tried searching alot on google, but with no luck...

    Somebody?
