Aug 19thHow stretched is your tire?

Is this a new regular? Well, actually I was planning to do a deep dish but last monday we got a comment from TOJI004 that he stretched 195/50 tires on 10J rims. My remark was that I can only imagine what it looks like! My best guess it comes a bit near this:

RS Watanabe 16 inch 8.5J with 175/60 stretched on it
You can really see the inner and outer shoulders on this rim standing out from the tirewall!

So alternating between deep dish and stretch tires is a nice addition to these series. ????????(???)??????!!!!!

I posted these pictures on my own regular blog last week as well. This Minkara user wanted to find the perfect match for his Carina AA63 Wagon and what else to do with a set of 16 inch 8.5J and 8J RS Watanabe rims than to fit several tire sized on them to see how they look stretched on those rims:

Compare several tiresizes on these RS Watanabe 16 inch 8J and 8.5J

The tiresizes are from left to right: 195/50 on 8.5J, 175/55 on 8.5J, 175/55 on 8J

This is how the 175/55 on 8.5J looked:

And what did he choose? 175/60 turned out to be the perfect match!
