i would like to answer some of the questions as well. 285 doesn't necessary mean stretch on 10.5. i have 10.5 as well with 285 michelin a/s, and it's nothing but beef. it's just the dunlop leman (both 702 and 703) design. i have the leman 702 on my sc430 (10.5 and 285) and it's very stretched too. it all depends on the design of the tires.

I had some 19x11.5 with 285/35/19 SO3 and they were not stretched at all. Of course Bridgestone is a wide tire for the size. I would like to try these 702 out next time it seems they stretch very nicely thanks
thanksbrand and model definitely has a lot to do with it here

Again, thanks for all the great props..... hopefully a few other cosmetic items can finish up the car.
