Stretched tires

Pros... You can be herrafrush... And if I see you I will pray you hit a pothole. Cons... Everything, less grip, less safe.

Pretty much. There are no pros to people with the correct number of chromosomes. It's all cons. It will handle worse, be unsafe, and broadcast loud and clear to everyone around you that you have no idea what you're doing when it comes to cars.

Wait- there is one "pro". It will allow you to put wheels that don't fit on the car as long as you run moronic levels of camber. So, if that's a plus, then you've got that going for you. I guess.

Yep. All show and no go. Doesn't make any sense to put them on a sports car if you expect to drive it like a sports car. If you like the look and don't mind the hit to the handling (ie, a show car), go for it.

Just realized this was in the Nismo thread...really??

Cons: It looks like absolute sh*t and people will make fun of it.
