Buy nice wheels, run cheapest tyres that stretch on them. Nice.

Spoken to any engineers about that? brake upgrades require tests to make sure they don't lock, and if they do, they don't pass.

So a stetched 45 profile tire on a 1 tonne civic is more unsafe then a 2 tonne commonwhore on 22"s with 30 profile tires?

ahhh.... no it doesn't.

No problem, Ill stop driving a car then because regardless of modifications, I could be hit by someone else and die... We should all stay indoors on our computers and live in fear.

I dont have any pictures for you nor stories, The main reason would be because i dont hang around fanboy enthusiasts who think its cool to put -10 camber, massive offsets with stretched tires and ridiculous number plates on their cars. But im sure there are fails and when it happens it is quite unsafe.

edit: umad?

Not mad, find it hilarious when pretty much all ozhomo trolls spam the shit out of the technical forum with their opinions... Only forum im on that allows that, generally shit talking is restricted to spam threads, not tech forums. Also find it hilarious that you picture anyone with stretch as "fanboy enthusiasts".... Im sure you have a mad posse of jdmYO civics on slipstreams.

Didn't realise that the price of tires was a huge factor in car safety, explains why 80% of standard cars run the cheapest tires possible from bob jane t marts.

15x9 195/45 civic 22x8 215/30 ve commodore.

Both hit a pothole, which wheel has more chance of being damaged?

civic clearly, that's a ridiculous spec of tyre to run.

price is a factor, you buy chinese shit tyres, expect chinese shit quality and performance.

and the sidewall doesnt need to flex either hey? maximum stretch for maximum bitches

no one is spamming an opinion, only you are. its a fact, stretched tyres are not safe and just to be the devils advocate personally i'd rather run high boost and kill an engine than stretch my tyres.

in saying that though, what could possibly ever go wrong though with stretching tyresright?
