not a huge fan of the slammed, streched tire fad. butyou pull it off really well man.

i want to run really wide rubber on my car, but im on a budget right now. have to settle for the skinny 275`s, lol.

the car looks awesome man, Kudos for stepping out of the box.

he already addressed that

...10 in wide wheel, 10.4 in cross section tire....not a stretch. it a 265 on a stock body STi . nothing to hate on in my book. i guess i can see why some people don;t like it, it's not your typical same old by the book subaru. if it wheren;t for people doin things different we'd be no where. the suby scene is so weird i swear

bead to bead a 10" wheel is 11"s so a 10" tire on a 10" wheel is a stretch as you can see here.

not my thing...

***Spaceman*** · 05-01-2008, 04:23 PM

If I hadn't got the '08, the '07 would be the next choice of STi. You '07 SP looks titties.

**Seventy STi** · 05-01-2008, 04:25 PM

Thanks for the support.

When I first ordered the rim. Teh Clap was setting up bill using a 9" wheels with 235/40 tires and you can see it on his blog telling people how to do it. I step it up(so does many more ppl using 9.5 and such) and use 1" more on the wheel and I'm able to 3 sizes up the tires and my car is as low as most of the car. That was my goal to use as wide as possible on the rims and the tires on the stock body. Also lower the car as much as possible. Thats what so call aggressive fitments. Also I used +35 because I want less poke also but thats all the tires I can fit.

I also step up on what you other people want for the 17s with big bad wide tires also. I know how to do both but just not doing on the same car.

it really depends on the motorsport of choice and the rules allowed.

THank you for answering this questoin..., i have asked numerous times as to why people stretch their tires always to not get an answer other than "clearance"... final this explains the reasoning.

i agree w/ munky.... to some it may look weird, and it does somewhat in my book.... but its different and hes pushing the envelope... he set a goal and looks like he achieved it... great IMO that he did this, it does make the car look a tad, different, but if its his taste, more power to him....

Just curious, i dont remember if it was in here or another thread, but could t3h_clap or someone else address whether or not a wide wheel, and wide tires w/ an aggressive fitment (fender mods, aggressive offset) is beneficial for things like auto-x?

***VSGTS14*** · 05-01-2008, 05:04 PM

that's some effin crazy ****! looks awesome!

subwrxkid · 05-01-2008, 10:06 PM

I love it, I think I already said it on nasioc.

What's the section width on the 265? Tread width? I saw you replied about the camber, is there any chance you can find out how much front and rear? And was it neccessary to modify the camber plates on the coilovers to fit?

I know, so many questions. I want 18x10's now, but I think I may just stay with my 9.5's and make the car as low as possible with front having a lower offset than the rear. lol
