Is it possible to stretch a slick

[rhoderacer]

I have a set of 16x10 and 16x8. I can get 4 215x40x16s for $200 on cl. I just didn't know if slicks would stretch onto a 10. I do not plan on running this car on a track and it is just a weekend car. I just figured for the price it may be worth a shot.

Is it possible???

You sir, just made my day. Do you know the specs of the rim/tire width

It has been done, as seen above, but I feel deeply and sincerely sorry for whomever you stick with that task. Don't expect finding a shop willing to do it to be easy.

So you're planning on running slicks on your e46 on the street?

My exact thinking...

Lol no. That would be rough in Rhode Island with snow, salt, and sand around. It would be for my 76 2002. I opted out because stretch I will need will be hard to get seated and there is no need to make a new problem for me to fight.
It looks pretty cool but mabe for anouther person to accomplish. Thanks for the help and concern though.

But wait you are running slicks on the street regardless of what car? There is a certain reason that slicks are for track use only. Also why they make street radials, like the Mickey ET streets

Because they are cheap and it will only be on the road on sunny days. Do you have a problem with that??? Because if so, I would love to hear it!!...

That's what I hear. Those air tanks have some serious power to them.
