Was bleeding the brakes on the 240 today and took a couple pics of the steamrollers.

Is there a point you're trying to make?

lol most ppl don't make the effort to fit Fatty tires on there car.so they stretch .. and somehow it became "cool"...

I have mentioned b4 that streching tires does have a real aplication when it comes to drifting. I Also like streched tires, but I like it on drift cars. My 240 has streched tires, but my track car (audi) doesn't.

so how wide are they?

Post by **OutToWinPAHC** » Mon Sep 21, 2009 4:50 am

So greg. Thoughts on 285's on a 9inch wheel?

Post by **HoosierSX** » Mon Sep 21, 2009 5:25 am

u sure they're only 9in wide? if they're 285's id say those are 10 inchers

Heck, if those are 285's, then that's at least an 11" wheel

Post by **AZhitman** » Mon Sep 21, 2009 5:50 am

They're 10 and 11.

So when are you going to drive that car?

Post by **AZhitman** » Mon Sep 21, 2009 6:42 am

It's still down - Problem after problem.

Electrical issue has been frustrating me for months, other projects have taken percedent, replaced the turbo, and waiting for our local Biki expert to give it a re-tune...

It's almost droptop weather, so hopefully she'll be out abusing tires in short order.

Are those 225s, Greg?

Post by **AZhitman** » Mon Sep 21, 2009 7:14 am

No sir.

Post by **gingerbredman** » Mon Sep 21, 2009 8:20 am

I like stretched tires, too.. but I like mine backwards, being stretched outwards instead of in. Helped avoid much curb damage plus rides better.

Something like this

However, I ended up with this

Post by **AZhitman** » Mon Sep 21, 2009 8:26 am

I like that look.

My Q had the musclecar look - 275/40/18's on a 9" wheel all the way around!
