215/45r17 On 17x11

I feel like a 225 that stretches well would probably fit my needs.

This will be more dependent on how your individual brand of tire that you choose runs than anything else. You will probably want to stay away from anything that comes recommended as a tire that "stretches well" as they typically run narrow. Alternatively a 215/45 up front and 235/40 rear in a brand that runs narrow and stretches well will work out for what you want to do as well.

With a 225 though will i still be able to get my car to sit the way I want when I air down?

[KarlSpackler]

From my experiences stretching i have reason to believe it wont work out too well.. but anythings possible i suppose. But i would run 225 rear and 215 front

This, unless you like rims that are bent to shit. I can say this with 10 years of running stretched tires

Well I basically want my quarter panel to sit between lip and tire so I figure I need a hard stretch. Im running 17x10 front and 17x11 rear. Most likely running 205-45 front and 215/45 rear. I was looking into the achilles atr sports. I heard they stretch really well.

A 215/45R17 on a 17x10 is already pretty intense of a stretch. You could put creditcards on inside of the lip. On a 11" I would probably run a 225/45R17

[Zic]

It is doable, depending on brand of tire and design of the barrel / lip.
The real question is, do you really need all that stretch?

[cocomA4zzy]

that is quite a stretch my friend

Hey everyone, I searched but couldn't really find anything on this. Does anyone have any pics of a 215/45 on a 17x11? I looked on tyrestretch but didnt see anything. Thanks for any help.
