Hard parkers.

~$8000 in wheels...and shitty *** stretched tires to go with it.
Its also supposedly a twin turbo - horsepower unknown to me, but it doesn't matter, its not like the rubber could even dream of handling it. Nevermind the air ride suspension.

Ugg, all so dumb to me. Why even bother putting the turbo kit on it? Just leave it stock HP, its not like the tires could handle it anyway...

Yep, not a big fan of that either. Talk about some wheels that are destined to be curbed.

Let me find some pics of overly stretched tires. Doesn't even reach the lip.
So damn ugly

I can't stand super stretched tires either. Hopefully its just a fad, like spinners.

Sadly, I dont think its the case - I still see people doing it, and its been happening a long time. Long fad to still be running :(

No offense to the west coasters on here, but hard parkers seem quite prevalent out there...

Holy negative camber, batman!

Haha, one little bump in the road, and the front just mashes right into the flare...

Well I have to assume that when he's driving it, he lifts the air suspension up.

The rims actaully go inwards and up when hitting a bump. At first I thought major curb rash and fender rash....lol
I got a pic I saw where the rubber doesn't reach the lip, so the lip is hanging out alone....LOL

Side walls of the tires are bent up, isn't that a safety hazard?? And do they over pressure the tires to fit like that??

Many people argue that stretched tires are a safety hazard, but the proponents of it argue that theres hardly any proof that it will actually do anything.

Me, I can just take one look at the tires and with the understanding that tires aren't designed to flex like that, and know that its not particularly safe.

Try this video - I cant access youtube at work, but this was found on a quick google:

In the pic you posted. The walls are quite bent and it takes a good amount of pressure to do just that. Looks like a chopper's rear wheel, like a bubble.

And the sad part is, as you said in a previous post, its not even the most extreme incident of stretching we've seen, but the concept is same IMHO, and unsafe no matter what. Again, my opinion.

When I look at those pics I can only say: Why??
It's just wrong

here's the pic

wont the tire pop off the rim?

THAT is freakin' HIDEOUS. He took a nice set of rims and ruined them. :shakes head:

No... just no.

It seems everyone here(including me) unanimously agree those are hideous, got me thinking if there's a forum out there where everyone unanimously agree those are AWESOME!

Oh, I'm sure there is. You can find everything on the Internets. I mean, you know, "2 girls, 1 cup"... 'nuf said. :barf:

Not to mention cakefarts.

Someone needs to Photoshop the flares, and rims onto a 370Z!

http://i16.tinypic.com/2vwiolj.jpg

It's VIP YO the new hawtness!!

seriously though this needs to stop. There's like a 60 page thread on one of the 350z forums arguing about who has the most stretch and tuck, I pray those people don't work their way over here.

Why why why

Yeah, when I used to check out that 350Z forum a lot I was starting to think I was the only one there who thought stretched tires look completely retarded.

The picture with the ripped tire tells you everything you need to know.

This sounds like a good criteria to run someone out of the forum.

They can stay at 350z. Like stretch? :gtfo2:

they've been doing that in japan for a while now. some think its dumb others think of it as how aggressive of a wheel set up can i get on my car. i think it looks bad ***. not something for day to day driving.

FUGLY!

And stretched tires are so 1980's mini truck GHETTO!

Don't do this!

How could you guys hate on that? It looks mad dope that way! I'd sacrifice all and any performance if it makes the car look that HOT. You guys are all crazy and have no sense of style at all.

Ha! Good one, tranceformer! (uh, right?)

on the G37, 305 tires fit nicely, not stretched or pulled....what do you think??

Good catch. :tup:

There was a thread about this on my350z and I put my two cents in. I got a reply that was somewhat similar to the "joke" I posted.

That G37 shows you how wheels and tires are supposed to fit together. The tire actually makes it to the edge of the wheel, what a thought.

^^ yup, me like the real deal way

Is that your G, nogood?

Edit: never mind. You're in Montreal. That G has a FL plate.

^^ lol....there's no snow around.....

That G37S looks tight!
